nope. you need to think otside the box; it is not necessarily a team which is successful in the latter stages. But you will have heard of the team.

I work in the middle of nowhere where there isn't even a shop... what was I saying in the Times?

...

Anyway, my question...

Edmund the Martyr was a 9th century King of East Anglia. But where was he buried?

It's not the Vatican.

But not unlike the travesty of the Honey Monster question I set not long ago, you don't need to know anything about Anglo-Saxon kings to get this right.

I live in Cambridge, and Bury St Edmunds springs to mind. It has to be that, surely??

Well done MattB!

Perhaps if I'd phrased the question, "Where did they Bury St. Edmund?".. you might have got it UP!

Over to you, Matt.
