Second of two parts. Questions one to five were posted in Part I yesterday.

Something a bit different today. You can earn a total of 55 points by answering all the questions completely. The first question is worth one point and has only one correct answer. The second question is worth two points for two correct answers and so on… until the tenth question which is worth ten points for ten correct answers.

Continuing from yesterday with questions six to ten.

Six

For SIX points, name the members of the comedy troupe, Monty Python.

Seven

For SEVEN points, list the Harry Potter novels. No need to put Harry Potter and…

Eight

For EIGHT points, starting from 0 degrees and moving clockwise, list the compass points formed by dividing a compass rose into eight segments. (in clockwise order)

Nine

For NINE points. In J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings, a group of nine, known as the Company of the Ring or the Fellowship of the Ring, embarked on a mission to destroy the ring. Who were they?

Ten

For TEN points, list the world’s ten most populous cities as listed by the UN 2025 Population Estimates.

Good luck! As usual I’ll post the answers later.

As a retired trivia writer, editor and quiz compiler, I wholeheartedly agree with Bertrand Russell’s quote: “There’s much pleasure to be gained in useless knowledge.” Trivia of all sorts has always fascinated me, and for many years, I’ve written and compiled trivia for various media, including traditional TV and radio quiz shows, newspapers and magazines, apps, and other digital platforms.
