By coincidence has exactly the same question as one of the general knowledge quizzes reset today. That French city closest to England sure is popular.

I thought that Reno, Nevada was the divorce site and Las Vegas the gambling mecca.

Las Vegas is also famous for its many quick service (even some drive-through) wedding chapels. Reno is also a place for gambling- it's sort of like Las Vegas but much smaller.

I think Gambling capital or Entertainment city or even Sin city is a better clue for Las Vegas

Do people not know about Vegas wedding chapels? They're ubiquitous in pop culture.

It is one of them, along with Manchester, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Bristol and Birmingham. It depends on which part of finance you are talking about.

I seriously doubt this one. Only guessed it because there aren't many cities in Yorkshire that end in S.

The clue about the largest city in South America is only correct if you're talking about the metropol region, otherwise Lima would be bigger and not in Brazil (but not ending in s...).

Buenos Aires' metro area is still larger than Lima.

I don’t know who the cameraman was, but I’m pretty sure the most famous thing that happened in that city was someone getting shot who went by initials beginning with J. Now, he might’ve been a conniving oil tycoon who schemed his way to the top and stepped on the little people around him, but his shooting had hundreds of millions of people gripped in suspense for months in 1980!

Those were the days - when everyone watched the same TV program and you could discuss it with anyone.

We were students so it was a great way of procrastinating.

Forgotten who did shoot him. Must have lost interest between seasons.

So many cities that don't end in s in my language, so it's sometimes difficult to remember them...
