The question was: Where, apart from a zoo, might you expect to find a gorilla with a newspaper, a crab having a tea party, a camel and a cobra changing gear, and a dragon eating a meal?
The answer is in a wrestling ring - because these are all clues to holds or moves in wrestling. They are a 'gorilla press' (sometimes known as a 'gorilla slam'); a 'Boston crab' (the clue referring to the Boston Tea Party); a 'camel clutch' and a 'cobra clutch'; and a 'dragon bite'.

Q1 Why might you find it a little tedious to watch Elvis's second movie in Hawaii, Murakami's sixth novel and the Damned's second single?
Q2 (from Jim Norris) If I asked you for the connection between an umbrella, a wine glass, two arrows and a snowflake, why would it be a loaded question? 
Q3 Music: How would you put these in the correct order?
Q4 One way or another, how could you move from: (1) piquing someone's interest, to craving a physical sensation; (2) what happens after the engagement, to securing part of the wedding outfit; (3) contacting your GP, to tampering with your mobile?
Q5 How might you be thought to repeat your actions if you used puff pastry to repair itself, removed part of a canine anatomy, or made a connection in space?
Q6 Music: How might these all have inspired James Osterberg?
Q7 If Mitchell's were skeletal, McCullers' was lacking in crucial moving parts, and Nolan's stared down at him, how many did Thurber have?
Q8 Why, and where, might you encounter the Iron Chancellor, Constantine's mother, Saul of Tarsus, and Manet's reclining nude, near the border, feeling capital? And which of them might be best placed to go over and meet the Queen?
