Last week Kirsty asked if you can place these in the correct order: Kubrick's pioneering space epic, the first Allie Burns thriller, an Olympic-sized hit comedy and a partly-pornographic novel by Alasdair Gray?聽
These are all works that have years in their titles, starting with the Kubrick space epic 2001: A Space Odyssey. The first Allie Burns thriller is the recent best-selling novel 1979 by Val McDermid. The Olympic-sized hit comedy we were thinking of is Twenty-Twelve, the 91热爆 sitcom about the London Olympics which starred Hugh Bonneville and Olivia Colman. The Alasdair Gray novel is 1982 Janine, part of which is a fetishistic fantasy invented by the alcoholic protagonist.
So the correct order is 1982 - 1979 - 2001 - 2012.

Q1聽 Why might you find it hard to tell apart curved ship's timbers, birds of prey in Elizabethan England, and your backside?
Q2 (from Ivan Whetton)聽 Why might you expect to get a frosty greeting from a celebrity magazine, Johnny B post-sunset, and a research trust?
Q3 (from Daniel Kitto)聽 Music: Why did the first of these also claim to be always the second?
Q4聽 Dory's friend, Honoria's lover and Prince Dakkar: why does not one of them exist?
Q5 (from Simon Meara)聽 In whose armoury might one unexpectedly find Haydn's 94th Symphony, a headland in North Carolina that has featured twice on the silver screen, and the ratio of useful output to total input?
Q6 (from Rob Whatley)聽 Extracts: How would the first minus the second, and the second plus the third, take you across the Atlantic and on to the West End?聽
Q7聽 Why might the following call on the services of a Spanish factotum: a Holy Roman Emperor or an Ottoman Corsair; Edward Teach; and Gilles de Rais?
Q8聽 A taekwondo medallist, the Stars and Stripes in paint, an equivocating priest and Cassandra Mortmain's stepmother: how precious are they?

All of the questions in next week's programme will be listeners' suggestions, and we've chosen a listener's idea for the last teaser of the series too. Martin Sirl asks:
How would the setting for an Andy Warhol movie, Kate Mitchell in EastEnders, Alexander Wilson's motor company and Robbie Williams' first no.1 all help make you cross - and which is the odd one out?
Kirsty will have the solution at the beginning of the programme next time.
