11:

1: Who shot Geoff Hammond?
2: Who, on his death bed, quoted from Goldsmith's Elegy?
3: To which firm of accountants was the club-footed orphan articled?
4: Whose seaside suicide was greeted by six slim splashing struggling sharks?
5: Who succumbed to uncontrollable diaphragmatic spasms in the Arabian Sea?
6: Which Russian libertine was lost in the Borneo jungle in pursuit of the Assistant Curator?
7: For what, in Mrs Hodges' own private opinion, was hoak preferable to helm?
8: Who, having left one painter for another, ended her life with Oxalic Acid?
9: Which diamond merchant spent £260 on a sable cape and muff?
10: Whose final ante-mortem word was "England"?

I am inclined to say that overall this year's IS a lot harder -- or else my brane is withering.
