I don't usually do two quizzes on the 'bounce' but a certain 'peabrain' (aka GoG or DP) has mooted he wished he was a goddess (god forbid) so he could do a quiz. So to stop any un natural chance of nature I rooted around and found this in the 'Best of Jackie'. Published Circa mid 1970's and is pretty 'peabrain' material :-) The pictures are quite 'scruddy' and I have added some of my own.... so are you ready for ...

Now, this is better!!
