This year we've decided to do things a little differently. Instead of the usual "see how fast you can search Google and PM the answers to Jen" Quiz, we decided to really test you!!

Not sure how many of you know the quiz show "Family Fortunes" but that's the format of the quiz. For those of you who don't know, this is how it works.

We asked some very random people to give us 5 answers to each of 10 questions, and we've selected the top 5 answers. Your job is to guess what those 5 top answers are. The top answer is not necessarily the most obvious!

You need to guess which is the top answer (2 points) and then the other 4 answers (1 point for each correct answer). You will also get a bonus 4 points if you get all 5 answers including the top answer correctly.

For those of you who are still lost, here's 2 sample question:

Sample 1: Name the Top 5 premier league football teams in the UK.

My answer would be:

Top: Manchester United. Other 4: Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal.

The surveyed people's result was: Liverpool (Top answer), Chelsea, Aston Villa, Man Utd, & Arsenal.

So I get 4 points for that question because I correctly guessed 4 of the teams


Sample 2: Name the Top 5 Premiership Rugby teams in the UK.

My answer is:
Top: London Irish. Other 4: Bath, Gloucester, Leicester & Sale.

The survey result is London Irish (Top answer), Bath, Sale, Leicester & Gloucester.

So i get the full 10 points. 2 points for correctly guessing the top answer. 1 point each for the other 4 teams, and the bonus points for them all being in the right order.

so if you're ready, here's your questions:

.................................................. .....................

1) Name the Top 5 people associated with Coldplay (not including band members)
