Tom asked: If a gathering includes twelve who are religious, thirteen who are guiltless, thirteen who are courageous, and eight who are city-dwellers, why would only one make an impression - and who are they all?

These were clues to Papal names and the number of times in history they have been used. There have been twelve Popes called Pius, thirteen Innocents, thirteen Leos and eight Urbans. But there has only ever been one called Mark, in the third century AD - whose name suggests he聽would have made his impression.

There'll be another teaser question at the end of today's programme.
