Weekly Bonus Question
Welcome to the Weekly Bonus Question.
Each week the news quiz will offer an answer. You are invited to suggest what the question might have been.
Suggestions should be sent using the COMMENTS link below. And since nobody likes a smart alec, kudos will be deducted for predictability in your suggestions.
This week's answer is GREY, KHAKI AND SEPIA. The real question will be added here on Friday afternoon.
UPDATE 1705 BST: The correct question is... In what shades did film director McG shoot his new movie Terminator Salvation?
