Maybe I learned in the wrong place, I always understood that yearly was annuel, monthly was mensuel, and weekly was hebdomadaire, but the last thing I want is to argue about it.
If quotidian is a blanket term, which covers yearly, monthly, weekly, and daily, then there was a gap in my education, and I’ll go stand in the corner.

Sorry, should have said 'does it mean, yearly, monthly, weekly or daily.

ETA: Didn't see you post jsf.

Thank Christ for that, I now understand that the question must have been, does Quotidien mean yearly, monthly, weekly, or daily?
I thought that someone said that it means yearly, monthly, weekly, and daily.
I was on the point of firing an email to one of my French relatives, asking how could I be so wrong.

Surely they just go on to film the next show almost immediately? Maybe head backstage for a change of shirt in between to make it look like a new day, but I'm sure they'll film several shows in one day. He won't have had to wait long, certainly not overnight as the pretence.

The question setters should have offered 4 different selections of christian names for Barnum, all starting with P.T. They made it too easy.

How the hell does a 21-year old English student know about Dukas ?

Funnily, I had an inkling it was Dukas - no idea where it came from.

ETA: No idea on this tennis question.

I knew neither but I did know Venus Williams won in 2000!

[Laurel Green]

Well done that man!

[MitchT]

My gut said it was a Williams as soon as the question came up!

I couldn't do it on principle. Reminds me of "The Price Is Right" and contestants coming down the steps from their seats waving like loonies. Tacky.

[Laurel Green]

I wouldn't have the bottle to go on the show, but if for some reason I did, would have one of those false hands on a stick for the waving.
