	Hull! I was wondering what the hell began with a K. That was a cheeky one.

	J, Q, U, V, X, Z? I am now wondering what the largest settlements beginning with these letters are...

	(I'm British) I've never heard of Fareham or Tamworth! For J, maybe Jedburgh? Uxbridge for U? These are not particularly big places but they're all I can think of for those letters.

	Uttoxeter also for "U", as Uxbridge is a suburb really. You could probably also put Vale Royal in there, even though it isn't really a town, just so you have a V. And persnoally, I would replace Fareham with Fife.

	fareham is in bewtween southampton and portsmouth tamworth is in the midlands

	Fife isn't even a town is it? I do think Telford is bigger than Tamworth but not listed on the source for some reason. Plus as said I'm sure at least some of the missing letters could be filled in (maybe not x and z). V could be Ventnor (IOW), Q Queenborough or Queensferry

	Zennor in Cornwall. Only 217 people in the 2001 census, but better than nothing. Telford's population in the 2001 census was 138,241 so not certain why the World Gazetteer omitted it.

	Also, Upminster has 25,000 and Uttoxeter 12,000, though they use different sources and Upminster may be included in London figures so either may be correct.

	Interesting, I was convinced that Portsmouth was bigger than Plymouth but have now looked it up and the quiz is right! Thanks for the education peanut4.

Comment below threshold: show it

	T should definitely be Telford. Debatable whether Cardiff is bigger than Coventry.

	I was thinking Newcastle for N, not Nottingham. Fulham wouldn'twork for F because it's part of London. Also, N - Nottingham and Newcastle. I think they are almosy equal on population.

	Jarrow for J?

	Aberchild:	Jan 5th, 2011 at 17:11 GMT	2 points
	Telford is much larger that Tamworth. Cardiff is also larger that Coventry.

	Newcastle has a larger population than Nottingham btw.
