It's fried steak, says Steven Pearce of Omega Ingredients near Ipswich. One astronaut has also likened it to welding fumes. Nasa wants the smell recreated to enhance its training programmes.
James Monro quit after just two years in the job. He came to notoriety for his fumbling of the Ripper investigation, but his resignation came after an argument over police pensions.
It's David Cameron's, adding the phrase "You can't admit that change is needed, because that would mean admitting you've got it wrong" into his speech on Wednesday. Sir Ian resigned from the Met Police on Thursday, the same day Sarah Palin met Democratic rival Joe Biden in their one and only debate.
She said: "I'm 23". Johansson tied the knot with fiance Ryan Reynolds at the weekend. They announced their engagement in May.
It was a three-page proposal from Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson. The extra detail is largely made up of sweeteners of tax breaks for the pet projects of waverers.
It's the prime number. University of California mathematicians could be in line for a $100,000 prize (ã54,000) for finding the number. Three Chinese astronauts returned to earth on Sunday after performing a space walk.
It's the Krypton Factor - which ran on ITV between 1977 and 1995. Going for Gold ran on the BBC between 1987 and 1996, and is being revived by Five. Arctic Rolls are making a comeback after being ditched in the late 90s.
