2012 FUND-RAISING QUIZ FOR MACMILLAN NURSES

QUEEN ELIZABETH 11 DIAMOND JUBILEE

This year my charity quiz will be raising monies for MacMillan Nurses. To celebrate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee in 2012 my theme for this year is the Jubilee and therefore either the words QUEEN, DIAMOND , JUBILEE, 60 or SIXTY will be found in the question or the answer. Can you find the 100 answers from the clues below? I've given you a helping hand by giving you the number of letters and/or number of words in the answer e.g. Who is the Queen's 1st son? Answer 7 Charles. Where the answer is a number it is left blank.
