Missing things, Nick Cave sings, and so does Doctor Who – take the Thursday quiz

Here is Nick Cave at the coronation of King Charles. He was also at Shane MacGowan’s funeral. But what did he sing there?

The quiz master has already retired for his Christmas holidays, but before he went, he chiselled out some stone tablets with 15 vaguely topical or general knowledge questions and left some poor soul to type them up. Rest assured there will be quizzes on all the Thursdays throughout the holiday period – but they may be a little less topical than usual. Have fun, and let everyone know how you got on.

The Thursday quiz, No 138

If you really do think there has been an egregious error in one of the questions or answers – and can show your working – feel free to email martin.belam@theguardian.com, but remember the quiz master’s word is final and he genuinely is off work until after Christmas so it will be a waste of everybody’s time.
