That's right. None of us thought it was possible, but the Great ACT Cryptic Quiz has been beaten into the ground by not once, but THREE times!
(Unfortunately it came too late for one lady who was last seen running into the woods crying "I don't know! I can't do it any more! The words! They know where I live!')
Of the answer sheets we got back from those brave enough to face the challenge, three of them all had the same score of 97!! Geniuses! Of course that meant we had to draw the ultimate winner from a hat. That ultimate winner is...
MR COLLACOTT from Bideford!
He will receive his prize of £25, while our runners up...
Rob Pudner and the dynamic duo Brian & Sue Spiegelhalter
...will get a consolation prize of £5.
Congratulations to everyone who gave it a go. Want to find out the answers? Well, read on...
