The following answers were duplicated:
Spoiler:
Withano & Wojtek -
Picnic shoulder - 1pt each
Mitchell, Littlegreen & Amy Jade -
(Smoked) Pork - 2pts each - sorry Littlegreen but if I allowed 'smoked pork' or 'diced pork' to be different from just 'pork' it'd be like allowing 'pork with a bit of mustard on it' as a unique answer
Question Five: Name a popular beer
The following are unique answers, scoring 0pts:
Two beer brands were duplicated:
[b]Question Six: Name a popular takeaway option
Not many unique answers this time but here they are:
The rest of us duplicated:
Question Seven: Name a fizzy soft drink (excluding cola)
A lot more valid answers here, and so, naturally, some unique ones:
Just the one shared answer:
Question Eight: Name one of the sweets in a tub of Celebrations
I was willing to allow discounted sweets too but I forgot to mention!
Most of us duplicated:

Nobody said the Teaser
Question Nine: Name one of the main 3 meals of the day
Obviously, there's only 3 answers, so no unique ones...
One incorrect one though
Spoiler:
Matthew. -
Brunch - not one of the main three, no
12pts
Question Ten: Name a flavour of ice cream.
We were set for an all-unique round until the very last answer...
That answer, oddly, was...
Question Eleven: Name something you'd have in a fry-up
Some good thinking-outside-the-box here, with answers that are technically a "part of it" but are considered accompaniments:
Two answers appeared more than once...
Question Twelve: Name a hot drink.
Not one of us said hot chocolate
A couple of duplicate answers here:
Question Thirteen: Name an alcoholic spirit.
This was a tricky one since the technicalities of what "is" and "isn't" a spirit were all over the place and hard to follow... some of you gave brands, too, so I reduced them to the types of spirit as the question required.
One obvious answer popped up 3 times:
There was one incorrect answer:
Question Fourteen: Name a pizza topping
Technically I would've had to allow everything for this answer, including "semen", "batteries" and "dead people", but we all went a little more safe than that...
Spoiler:
Shaun - Bacon
Withano - Onion
Mitchell - Anchovies
Littlegreen - Baked beans & sausage (Heinz Pizza) -
this sounds positively delightful
Matthew. - Red onion
Wojtek - Ham
Babayaro - Sausage
Ross. - Sweetcorn
Amy Jade - Meatballs
RileyHollyoaks - Pepperoni
Just the one duplicate answer:
Question Fifteen: Name a type of savoury pie
Again, you could've really convinced me with any old weird recipe containing anything other than sweet-foods...
4 of you went safe, though:
