Re : What sort of branding expert thinks of James Bond and fails to think of Aston Martin?
Matt Folwell, Cambridge

Re "Large blackbirds, like crows and ravens" makes no sense. The blackbird is a type of thrush. Crows and ravens are 'black birds' which means something very different.
MJ Simpson, Leicester, UK

I don't mind if the , but if it does, then I do hope a new 99p coin will be introduced, otherwise some things are going to be very difficult to pay for accurately.
Adam, London, UK

Re : MP Matthew Taylor says, "But the fact that I chose the same sort of politics is more than just coincidence. The odds in favour of that happening by accident must be miniscule." Or in this country, probably one in three. Not so miniscule at all.
Jimmy, Berkhamsted

Surely the only correct answer to today's is "None of the above", as Leona is the only person to have ever topped the US singles chart with Bleeding Love. And that's my pedantic fix for the week. Gosh, that feels better.
Rob, Birmingham, UK

If only the caption competition was back, I'd suggest: "Thunderbirds reunite 10 years after dramatic split." Disclaimer: I give the ´óÏó´«Ã½ permission to use this caption in association with my first name on its website.
William, Shenfield, England

Caption Comp (I wish 3): "So you got him with a right cross like this, eh?"
Andy Hart, Sarnia/Canada

Please don't bring back the caption comp. Just as Chris on ´óÏó´«Ã½2's Eggheads has been able to say for many years that he is the "current International Mastermind champion", it gives me constant pleasure to carry a similar (un-obsolete) honour.
John, Sevenoaks

If we cannot have the caption competition, can we at least have an audio equivalent based on ? I quite like the description of "bee buzzing in a bottle", but I think it sounds more like a pigeon singing in the shower.
Graeme, Dundee

"Rising all the time, I think is the answer," said Ms Alexander, adding: "Ten out of 10, 10 out of 10." () I'm curious as to how it was written out two different ways - did she spell out "t-e-n" the first time?
Chris, London

Re - why the quote marks? That implies that Piers evilness might be in question; he even admits it himself. As Stephen Fry said, the meaning of the word "countryside" is "to kill Piers Morgan"...
The Bob, Glasgow

Is there anything more crushing than getting the 7th question wrong on (especially for those of us that have never quite managed a 'full house')?
Chick, Crawley

Note to readers re Wednesday's letters - Michelle B from London is not me in drag.
Michael B, London
