don't usually like these "word puzzle" quizzes but this was kinda fun. Got 100%. I'm doing something a little bit similar just searching first to see if it had already been done before or not....

Never heard of Rachel Weisz, that was the only one I missed, looked her up and still don't know who she is. Otherwise, I love these quizzes.

I liked this puzzle. I think the "Fairbanks" clue would be better divided into two clues.

I'm Irish and we don't say 'lass'. That's Scottish. Just a head's up

So, a boy doesn't have a "Y" chromosome? - The answer should be "male", not man.

Like most of the clues on this quiz, there are multiple things it could refer to. Frodo also had a sword, a gardener, a face, etc.

Lass is not really Irish, more Scottish (Watching Simpsons and the Irish/Scottish perspective is embarrassing!)

Also why is a bus described as magical? If this is random Beatles reference, they travel on a coach really, but this clue is a bit odd to me.
