Consulting a map won’t help. The U.K. is a political term, not a geographical one. The Isle of Man is not politically part of the U.K., it is a Crown Dependency, on the same legal basis as Jersey and Guernsey.
'Na h-Eileanan Siar', 'Na h-Eileanan an Iar', 'Eilean Siar' and 'Western Isles' should probably be accepted for 'Outer Hebrides'. The first three are three variants of the Gaelic name and the later is a common English alternative.
Yeah, I looked at it and was pretty sure it was Anglesey but the bit about being an island chain threw me off for a second; I'm guessing it's a mistake. Quizmaster?
Why is Wales a "country", not a country? I mean, it IS a country, so why the inverted commas? Or is the setter in the (strange) habit of conferring inappropriate punctuation on all the countries of the UK?
Yes that confused me somewhat. The question asks for a river, I entered "Trent", because that's the major river that comes out at the estuary, and that wasn't accepted. When I arbitrarily entered "Hull" because that is the city we are looking at, that was accepted. I think I would just change the clue to ask for 'estuary'.
Managed to get them all, which shows that it is much easier when it is your own country as I haven't done particularly well on some of the other satellite image quizzes. Cardiff and Belfast took a bit of working out though
Yeah, I don't think so.
