No it's not that.
I'll give you a further clue - they are to do with advertising and the time of the question post is a big clue.

They have - but which one?

Not adverts per se. They have all sponsored a certain programme.

Although I don’t have a telly, if the time of original posting is important, then I would guess that it is the weather forecast on ITV.

It is the ITV National Weather. I will pass the clicker over to you.

There are nine DVD Regions, 0-8. 0 is universal, 1-6 cover different parts of the world (all land masses except Antarctica, which is not the answer) and 7 is for special use by parts of the film industry. Where would you watch Region 8 DVDs?

I will give it to yoyothehobo as your are both near. They are for use on international venues such as cruise ships and aircraft; space might count in the future.

Oh, I was just being facetious....didnt expect it to be the correct answer!
What is the first (and i think only) element in the periodic table to have a Relative Atomic Mass that is less than double of its Atomic Number?
BIG EDIT: Sorry, meant to put OTHER THAN HYDROGEN

Is the correct answer, with a Relative Atomic Mass of 15.999. Your turn to uncover a new element.

Staying with elements. Which element is named after a god of war?

Thorium after Thor (mind you he was god of thunder)
Cerium after Ceres?

Apologies you are "correct". However as you sat Thor is not actually a God of War.
So your turn to be the deity.

I shall take this, if I may.
Apart from being the authors of detective fiction and female, what have Agatha Christie and Josephine Tey got in common, please?

They both disappeared for a time?

That's true, but not what I'm looking for, sorry.

Errrr .... you could well be right but, again, that's not what I'm looking for - sorry.They were both convinced that Richard III was a good guy, and his enemy Henry VII an "unsatisfactory person" -- Josephine wrote a book expounding this view, but Agatha didn't...
