Haha the bottom of the 3 was coming off the bottom of the paper I ha everything written down on so I had mistaken it for a 2 when inputting to Excel! Looking forward to your quiz - will be a tall order for me to overtake jimwatts for the top spot. Was hoping with 55 players this week he would be a bit further down the scoring :P

Thanks guys - glad the feedback is good. Once I got my head round how to do all the results etc. and use Excel it wasn't too bad even with 55 players! I think next time I might do like The Price Is Right where you need to get as close as possible but without going over. If you are over, you go bust and score zero points. Would make calculating results easier too! :D

My mistake - yes you did. Have updated the Q10 results and will sort the overall results now.

And with that we are done! A fun format with answers needed under pressure. Hope you all enjoyed it. Congrats to the Top 5 players in order: 1. paulgilb 2. TheHitParade 3. RabbitFurCoat 4. Dobbo 5. jimwatts Full results table below: Overall Standings

Q10. How many weeks has Rihanna spent in the Top 10, including features etc.? JUuw1O-SRts Rihanna has had a slew of big hits and has spent a whopping 265 weeks in the Top 10! Answers varied wildly here between 11 weeks and 1235 weeks! Astonishingly jimwatts guessed 265 and gets max points! Q10 results

Q9. To the nearest 1,000 how many copies did Cher's "Believe" sell in its opening week? nZXRV4MezEw This opened with sales just short of 168,000. Less than I thought it would have actually! But increased in sales the week after. Amazingly No Sleeep got this bang on! Q9 results

Q8. How old was Madonna when "Hung Up" was #1? EDwb9jOVRtU Madge was the ripe old age of 47 when she was bouncing around in her leotard at the summit of the charts in 2005. 16 players getting this one bang on. Q8 results

Q7. How many Top 10 albums has Cliff Richard had? rZCEBibnRM8 Sir Cliff has been around for a long long time and has had a whopping 46 Top 10 albums! Nobody got this correct but 4 players were just 1 away and score top points here. Q7 results

Q6. What position did Jay-Z's "99 Problems" peak at in the chart? 6uikJTnmtgw Probably my favourite Jay-Z song - it only peaked at #12 in the charts - robbed of a Top 10 position!! 8 players getting this one correct and scoring max points Q6 results

Q5. How many times is the word "Low" used in the lyrcis of Flo Rida's song of the same name? U2waT9TxPU0 "Low" is used 65 times in the song. Guesses ranged from 8 to 330 on this one!! Nobody got it correct but 2 players just one away who get maximum points Q5 results

Links should be accessible now :)

I cannot copy and paste the results from Excel so am saving as Google Sheets. Access should just be open though. Not sure if I have to grant permissions etc.

Q4. What was the aggregate age of the All Saints members when "Never Ever" hit #1? nPXqkjpXZ_k The word aggregate clearly threw a fair few people off here. Aggregate of course means total and not average!! The members of All Saints were collectively 91 years old when Never Ever hit the #1 spot. Nobody got it right but 7 players were just 1 year off and score maximum points Q4 results

Q3. How many red balloons did NENA sing about in her #1 hit? Q86nf7mpOXk This song is clearly more popular than I gave it credit for with all but 3 people knowing that it was 99 balloons! Q3 results

Q2. How many people supposedly went out for dinner in Whitney Houston's "It's Not Right But It's OK?" 6J538b-OLRU 14/55 people got this one right. A little trickier this one... Only 2 people actually had dinner out of a supposed 6 as 4 of them were really cheap Q2 results

Q1. How many days did The View have the same jeans on for in their song "Same Jeans"? RpXTISw_Huw 29/55 people got this right and knew that those jeans were kept on for 4 days. Great song from my uni days! Q1 results

Eek - I have the results in Excel but doesn't copy and paste well into here at all. Is there any way of doing it from Excel in to here without the formatting being all over the place? Perhaps as a picture or a link?

Thanks to the 55 players who took part this week. Results coming shortly!! :D
