wiki-illiam q5!
i: what is Penwith?
ii: whence 19/20 at Manchester?
iii: wherein – two legless paupers confined to dustbins?
iv: whose work on crop rotation earned him a derogatory nickname?
v: which tragic tale ended ‘I’m too tired and old to learn to love, leave me alone for ever’?
vi: where did the congregation consist of an old marsh-donkey and a wet yoke-weary bullock?
vii: where did Jack spend ½d on a roll and ½d on some cheese at a Chandler’s Shop?
viii: where were pigs’ teeth stuck into the trunk of a wych-elm?
ix: what began as a settlement on the Prittle Brook?

the rules as they have evolved:

c: you're obviously allowed to look ahead at future questions as (first) this was published in a national newspaper and i can't stop you and (second) i can't stop ME either, and have done exactly this
iii is a beckett play! is it endgame? and iv is surely turnip townsend? so theme might be ends
