Trivial Pursuit

Recommended Posts

Edward VII was the first English King of the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha lineage (Queen Victoria married her cousin Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha and Edward was the eldest son)

Edward's son King George V also bore the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha surname until he chose to be renamed "Windsor" (after the castle) in the First World War - the German moniker being so "inconvenient" !

 

Technically (pedantically !) thereby there have been actually two reigning monarchs holding this surname in England !

Once upon a time the PENGUINS were the senior football team in this town which has had a team in Football League membership. In fact ~ the PENGUINS eventually became the latter team's own reserves !

 

What is the town I am referring to ?

Scarborough but only because when I googled football club and penguins that was the closest I came to a hit.

 

Tough question.

Strewth. I did not seriously expect that to be right. So a question:

 

Name the first British female solo artist to have a UK No.1 album?
