Travel: The Location Hunters: Across the world in 80 questions: Frank Barrett reveals the answers to our festive quiz - and names the winners

Our Christmas travel quiz once again provided a terrifyingly stiff test for readers' mental faculties over the festive period. The quiz was a cunning mixture of the easy-peasy and the fiendishly difficult. A few of our real posers floored just about everybody.

These included the question on where How Green Was My Valley was filmed. Most of you guessed the Rhondda Valley; in fact the location was neither green nor a valley, but a back lot in Hollywood where the director, John Ford, built his idea of a Welsh mining village (and populated it largely with expatriate Irish).

Which Greene film, we asked, was set in Ireland? The film Odd Man Out, directed by Carol Reed, was written by F L Green. His lack of an 'e' meant that the correct answer was 'none'.

The question on Demolition Man puzzled all but a handful of you. San Angeles embraced Los Angeles, San Diego and Santa Barbara.

Many readers were at pains to point out that while Genevieve began with the London to Brighton vintage car run, it ended with a Brighton to London race - we accepted both Brighton and London as answers.

No one got all the questions right. The person with the greatest number of correct answers was Jenny Pendreigh of Edinburgh, who wins a seven-night trip to Hollywood for two, courtesy Virgin Holidays and Virgin Atlantic.

Jenny Pendreigh says it was her husband, Brian, who did most of the hard work. 'He has some film books and spent a lot of time studying them. He knew he hadn't got all the answers right. I'm absolutely delighted at winning - I've never even won a raffle.'

In second place was John Westbrooke of London NW2, who wins a three-night break for two in Rome with The Magic of Italy.

The 10 runners-up, who each receive the new video of the Clint Eastwood film Unforgiven and a copy of Frank Barrett's Family USA (published by Boxtree) were: S Allanson of Liverpool; Michael Allen of Norwich; Anne-Marie Baker of London W4; Mary Bernard of Cambridge; Roger Coote of Exeter; Eleri Ebenezer of London W4; Ann Jenkins of Exeter; Barrie MacDonald of London N6; Rob McNeish of Abingdon; and Chris Pollard of St Albans. Congratulations to all of you, and commiserations to the losers.
