Question 1) On which day of the week was Julius Caesar assassinated?

No pressure.

Well, given that each contestant has 2 minutes
on their specialist subject, you should have
roughly 90 seconds spare...or so rumour has it.

Were most of the answers "beheaded"?

Only 2 out of 6.

So... half right... that's two beheaded's and a lucky guess

[ichikitsune]

Very close.

Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced, beheaded, Survived.

Actually Anne was originally going to be burnt at the stake (no, not AS a steak. I thought I'd get in first there ) due to the fact she was trialed for witchcraft against the monarch, but Henry relented and allowed a fairly private beheading within the Tower walls. She was executed by a swordsman from her beloved France, not by axe. A bit of a final insult from old Henry there.

1.30am, 4 hours broken sleep the night before, and I'm quoting history. Yep, I'm a nerd.

Honestly (not questioning the veracity, just asking...) I thought she was "allowed" a swordsman as axes were;

a) approximate
b) rarely done in "one foul swoop" as it were.

Not as an insult!

honest question!

IIRC anne boleyn (sp?) had 3 breasts, and was part of the reasons how henry got her done as a witch.

Anyway my specialit sbject would have to be The Simpsons.
