The Lunchtime Bonus Question

The rules are simple. Every day at 1030 BST we give you an answer. You then tell us what the question was.

Marks are deducted for predictability, and a selection of your most wrong questions are published each day until about 1500 BST when the actual question is revealed.

The winner of this week's Lunchtime Achievement Award is Jason Smithwick for his tragically wrong question on Thursday. In accepting his award, the luxury keyring, he said: "After months of waiting I finally get to the top of the keyring replacement waiting list."
