I managed 19/20.
I never encountered the headlight switch before so that was the only thing I failed on. A number of others were educated guesses. Some required you to be 80+ or american to understand. Luckily I have watched oldies.

Well I get 0/20 since no pictures appear with this site on any of my devices. I could hazard a guess since it's multiple choice, but seems a little pointless. :-(

I remember the credit card reader from my Saturday job at Boots. Had to make sure you used the right paper for Access or Barclaycard 🙄. Whatever happened to Access?

Access became mastercard. How? i've no idea. Could have been a takeover or a rebranding or even both, or something else. I never had an access card, only visa.
