Interesting. First of all, these are English banknotes...Scotland and Northern Ireland (but not Wales) print their own money, but it's of course legal tender throughout the UK. Also, looking at your source, why not make the quiz everyone who's been on English banknotes since 1980? There's a really nice variety of people there, and the quiz is kind of flimsy as it is.

I believe Watt and Boulton (steam engine pioneers) are on the 50 pound note now
