    A few answers, most of which I am not entirely certain of.

    What was built by inmates taken from Changi Prison Camp? Bridge over the River Kwai

    What is the world's largest desert? Gobi

    What is the last letter of the Greek alphabet? Omega

    What monument occupies centre stage in Trafalgar Square? Nelson's column

    Which book catapulted Germaine Greer to fame? The Female Eunuch

    Name the three types of classical architectural column. Doric (that's the only one I can remember at present)

    And no, I didn't ask Jeeves (of any other internet site)!
