[Closed] Ifour Quiz 2021 (For real this time)

A man looking out of a chest?
Thankful toilet…

You basically have the first one
The toilet confused me, as there is another clue directly next to it which appears to refer to it but has nothing to do with the 'thanks'.

I gave up at 50 or so and just started spamming random city names at it.

A man looking out of a chest, you say?

And a standard slang term for a toilet. Thanks.

…er!

You basically have the first one

A man looking out of a chest, you say?

Doh!

Argh. 4 to go. All had clues on here I think but still can't get them!

- Cowboy hat (the one on the left)
- Batman sign
- Covid sign
- Spring

No matter what variations on what I think it is I just can't get them.

I'm stuck on 78/80!!!

Can't get the castle wrapped with a bow or the ape to man?

Cowboy hat (the one on the left)
A popular hat in the 80s, just try not to get shot

Batman sign
Easier than you think, if you're heard of the place (which you obviously haven't)

Covid sign
The first COVID sign

Spring
Another place you've not heard of, but it is shiny

Can’t get the castle wrapped with a bow or the ape to man?

Castle looks like someone just bought it

Ape to man
Something is going on. Maybe someone can explain it.

Argh got the castle! Thanks

Still stuck on the ape to man. I've seen the previous clues too but still can't get it

Maybe you'll get it in a few more generations. You'll be smarter and fitter then. I can recommend a good book that explains it

Cowboy hat (the one on the left)
A popular hat in the 80s, just try not to get shot

Batman sign
Easier than you think, if you’re heard of the place (which you obviously haven’t)

Covid sign
The first COVID sign

Spring
Another place you’ve not heard of, but it is shiny

Thanks. Got covid and spring. Just the last 2 to go! Can't get beyond fedora and it's not that

Think about where rather than what for the hat.

For the batman sign it's really a say what you see because you don't know the place

OMG how stupid am I

I'm stuck on 76. Can't get:
Batman
The 2nd tin one (got the bear)
The red pony

No idea where the last one even is!

Im on 69/80, with a little help from this forum. I know I’m missing some obvious ones but I’m really at a loss.

- The toilet (I’m adamant it’s to do with “loo” but can’t get it for the life of me)
- the dog
- Orange jam
- the covid sign (no amount of googling is coming up with the first place closed by covid)
- the cat and laptop
- the second hat (not the cowboy one)
- the denim jacket
- the basin that the ton is in (got the crowned ton)
- the food next to it (is it a melty cheese?)
- the mermaid(?) statue by the red phone box
- the anchor (how is it not Ankara?!)

Any help would be awesome. I know there’s been tons of clues about the toilet and jacket especially but literally nothing is coming to me!

Batman - you don’t need any help with this one.
The second can - maybe if you get it, they’ll make a film about it.
Red pony - stumped me for ages, I ended up googling “red horse place” and scouring images until something looked the same. Turns out there’s a country that’s well known for them…

Ok..got the red horse...ta!

I've now spotted the 80th one...off to think about those last 3

– The toilet (I’m adamant it’s to do with “loo” but can’t get it for the life of me)

yeah, this...

– The toilet (I’m adamant it’s to do with “loo” but can’t get it for the life of me)

Think of a muddier variant

Pablo Escobar could maybe help with the toilet based answer

the dog
- You might need a little dog knowledge

Orange jam
- Where did that come from?

the covid sign (no amount of googling is coming up with the first place closed by covid)
- You shouldn't need to Google it. Hope it doesn't drive you batty

the cat and laptop
- Not just a cat

“ the food next to it (is it a melty cheese?)”

So you’re looking for a Cluedo?

Think of a muddier variant

ARRRGGGGHHHHH - I'm sure I'd put that in much earlier but obviously not...

the basin that the ton is in (got the crowned ton)
- That weight did look a bit mucky

the food next to it (is it a melty cheese?)
- no. But it is quite hot

the mermaid(?) statue by the red phone box
- you need a little mermaid knowledge

the anchor (how is it not Ankara?!)
- I thought that first. Took me an age to get it

Think of a muddier variant

Oh. Ta. Makes sense now.

struggling with:

pushchair lady
dancing ladies poster
red shoes
batman symbol. goth?gotham?gothenburg?
palm tree

doing my nut in.

@smudger666

Horse grave.

help me.

Got it!

brilliant. Superb quiz this year.

thanks for the hints. still no joy with palms and batman.

gonna sleep on it.

Finally, just got the caped crusader and the mustard. 80/80

totally stuck with 4 left...

sandle, cockerel, the two little pots of something and the guy in the window 🙁

Still baffled by the cans/tins and batman
Got the rest

cans/tins

Batman

Man in window

Flip flop

Cockerill

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who struggled on the rooster with a firework up his bum.

Is the batman one a real city?

Yes batman is a real city.

Oh ffs...got batman. How does anyone know that!?

Now back to tins and cans

Yay! Got it! Thanks for the hints all!

If you went to the south of france to a film festival, where would you go?

All done at last - feel completely cheated on the bat one - suffice to say if you think about it at all you're overthinking it.

The covid sign one is hurting my head

COVID - where did it start, allegedly.

Cheers bri. I was sure id already tried that!

80! 😀
Think I must have tried every variation except batman. Never knew it existed.

Argh, still stuck on the camo saw blade and the envelope... even reading the entire thread several times I can't work them out!

@tomnavman

Thanks, all done! I had tried the answer to the envelope ages ago but was spelling it wrong!

Why am I the only one not getting the pizza clue? Is it that obvious?!?

@shermer75 are the pizzas upright, or maybe slightly askew?

Just got the guy-in-the-window one. Would never have got there if he hadn't popped up in the news recently. 70/80....

@shermer75 are the pizzas upright, or maybe slightly askew?

Oooohhh myyyy God. I'd tried that so many times, spelling it wrong each time!!! AAAAARRRGGH!!!

Yeah, really worth using Google as a spell checker for some of the names.

So which one we all having a go at next? Did the the tube stations one a few years ago, that was a proper say what you see.

the dancing ladies

do you recognise the image ?

The spring and the dancing ladies have been bugging me for days!

They are both tricky. One is a place you've probably not heard of so you need to say what you see. The other needs quite specific art knowledge so can't really be worked out or guessed

I got the dancing girls by putting in a type of french sausage that I thought were on the otter

Just got the guy-in-the-window one. Would never have got there if he hadn’t popped up in the news recently. 70/80….

and I STILL can't get this one 🙁

I think a few people got that one by random chance of a wrong answer to another clue.

care to give me a VERY obvious hint? I have no idea who he is.

@simian

@simian

I still can't get the spring one!

Thanks Guys, I have no idea who he is, as music attained perfection in 1996!

Spring;

How can the jar of marmalade not be Dundee?

Got it!

Now on 47

How come both Metropolis and Gotham won't be excepted?

71/80, and looked at the pic of the finished dots and can see the below are my missing 9.
ive read the thread over twice now, looking at the clues to get to where i am, so no need to repeat any.
any more clues please?

gorilla
red hat (EDIT: got it now)
purple 'free' sign
woman with pram (EDIT: got it thanks to killer below)
face statue on the building (EDIT: got it now)
the bear
otter (read the earlier clue but can only think of rotterdam which is wrong)
dog in leopardskin (EDIT: got it now. didnt know it was actually a place)
emerald stone

cheers

Woman with pram: parent with salutations

Woman with pram: parent with salutations

took me a while of trying to get past motherwell, but got it now thanks to that clue. cheers.

How come both Metropolis and Gotham won’t be excepted?

Probably because they are wrong. Both are actually real cities although one of yours is better than the right answer

gorilla - he has a name

otter (read the earlier clue but can only think of rotterdam which is wrong) - it's a little tenuous but there is another. Getting warmer, although maybe better to get colder.

emerald stone - the only fictional city, although I believe it is the nickname of another city in the game

77/80 now, just the 3 left.....

bear
otter
emerald stone

EDIT: typing at the same time 🙂
thanks, got the otter now thanks to that clue, i see what you mean.
and now the emerald too thanks.

just the bear left.

The bear is standing near a can for a reason

Or: A can, a bear, a solution

gaaaaah hahaa, thank you.

all done.

Thank you all for the thread of clues, finally now got 80/80

stuck on loads here, but work is quiet.... What's the breed of dog - is it relevant?

It is very relevant. Can't tell you without giving it away. It's pretty small though, and hard to spell

That dog....

That dog….

Smaller
