AnswersAnswers
  1. It's picture three, into the sleeve. Current NHS advice is: "If you don't have a tissue, sneeze or cough into your sleeve." This method keeps germs off the hands.
  2. It's the motorist, convicted but pardoned in 1996. Bentley was pardoned in 1993 after being wrongly hanged in 1953 for a murder he did not commit. Mathematician Turing is the subject of a campaign to be pardoned posthumously for gross indecency.
  3. It's the Scouts advised to avoid carrying penknives. The guidance, published in Scouting magazine, follows confusion over laws on carrying a knife in public. The renaming of Spotted Dick at Flintshire Council HQ was branded "political correctness gone mad".
  4. It's Samoa switches to driving on left. On Tuesday, it became the first country since the 1970s to change the side of the road on which cars are driven.
  5. It's retired pilot Bob Prothero, who had last flown the Handley Page Victor plane 29 years ago - and his flying licence had long since expired.
  6. It's $1,000 an ounce. Gold - usually sought as a haven from economic turmoil - has risen 13.6% in value this year.
  7. Chris Evans is 43, nine years older than Sir Terry Wogan was when he first broadcast for Radio 2 in 1972.
