	Good quiz but one minor point, these are Bank of England notes (your link goes to the Bank of England site) the Bank of Scotland, Royal Bank of Scotland, Clydesdale Bank and the Bank of Ulster each produce their own notes.

	Further to my earlier comment, it should be noted that some of these people are on notes currently in circulation or have appeared on notes that have been withdrawn.

	Fair points foyherald, I've changed the header for the quiz to specify Bank of England. I couldn't think of an effective way of specifying whether a person has or currently features so I've just used boring asterisks for now.
