Smash Those Answers!
Once again we have a round inspired by the awesome, ‘Richard Osman’s House of Games’ TV show.
The rules are simple; you get two clues and you must ‘smash’ the answers together to get a new answer which links and blends both together. Sometimes the answers are linked, and sometimes the two answers make a brand new word when smashed together!
There will be an explanation after every answer at the end of the quiz and there is even an example to help you out at the beginning!
