This is a quiz where the answers are never as they seem. They are based in incorrect "general knowledge" answers.

Rules/regualtions

You get 1 point for a correct answer, more (whatever I feel) for being interesting (relevant to the question) but 10 points off for giving the obvious answer. You can only guess once per question and, most importantly, I'm always right this stuff is all off of QI.

First question is:

How many wives did Henry VIII have?

Wife #4 divorced quickly (I think)

Wife #5 Lost Her Head (I think)

Ok no one got it right the answer was 2 (ot 4 at a stretch). hos marriage to anne of cleves was annulled so it never took place. The pope declared his marriage to Anne Boleyn illegal since he was still married to catherine of aragon at the time. Henry declared hos marriage to Ctherine of aragon invalid. Henry himself annulled hos marriage to Anne Boleyn just before her execution and he did the same to Catherine Howard.

No they didn't that the point an annulment meant that for all intents and purposes they didn't happen they were never married. anyway as I said in the rules I'm right.

huh, two nostils


Again as I said the answers aren't that easy. 2 is wrong but this time I won;t deduct points.
