General knowledge quiz
Sets of three: general knowledge

About this quiz
Every set is dealt from a list Ribbia has already checked for one of its other quizzes, and a name that sits on two of the 20 lists is never shown, so each set has one right answer.
- A wrong pick shows the right list and the next set comes up.
- Each list is the answer once; a settled list leaves the bank.
- Missed sets can be practised afterwards.
