join our online treasure hunt to be in with a chance of winning big!
To be in with a chance of winning, all you need to do is find the King’s Ransom. Solve the puzzle below and track down the area where the prize is hidden.
If you get it right you will be entered into the draw to win a golden key to the final.
Lucky golden key winners will be invited to a secret location to take part in the final stage of the hunt for treasure – with one person walking away with the King’s Ransom.
Join the fun *along the way! There are prizes up for grabs, including meals out and weekend breaks away, so register your details now to take part and keep track of your progress.
Join us on Facebook and Twitter for hints, tips and clues throughout the hunt.
Yes - the final part to win the £10,000 will be at a real life location within the UK for which they wont provide you with any travel assistance or accommodation, but there will only be 15 golden key winners running around trying to be first to the treasure, so 15:1 is pretty good odds for £10k

Answer to clue one is Edinburgh
Sorry its region one ( Scotland)
Clue 2 is
Climb on the roof and throw a bun! To celebrate something and add to the fun. A car flecked with paint might help you along. Add an aged mottled farm bird – you just can’t go wrong. So where was the factory? The town’s what you need. And another square struck off the map’s guaranteed!
Not sure of answer63 mortgage payments to go.

The Old Speckled Hen factory is in Oxfordshire...
It was first manufactured to celebrate the MG factory's 50th anniversary...

I think it is Abingdon on Thames as they do bun throws (http://www.abingdon.gov.uk/witness-living-tradition/bun-throwing) and also they have the Old Speckled Hen factory.
So yes the next region is in Oxfordshire. So is that region 10?Wins in 2015

I agree answer1 is Edinburgh, but I reckon Edinburgh lies in region 3.
I agree Abingdon is region 100 -

I'm pretty sure that the answer to clue three is Region 2.
The town they are looking for is Linlithgow; birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots, with The Four Marys pub being opposite the palace. Looking on a map, it is very close to Edinburgh but is further inland, meaning that the region for clue one was in fact Region 3 as One-Eye pointed out.0 -
