-- Is Pirates of the Caribbean the only one that wasn't a book before becoming a movie?

-- Is DaVinci Code the only one aimed at adults?

Edward VII
George V
Edward VIII
George VI

Edward VIII was the one I had in mind. He was the only one who abdicated, who was never crowned, and who had no queen.

Your turn. i'm off to bed.

Status: offline 		In case anyone's dying of curiosity, the answer to my queens quartet was Queen Mary (the 20th-century one). She was the wife of a king (George V), while the others ruled in their own right.

The reason I withdrew the quartet was that I remembered belatedly that there was an earlier Mary who co-ruled with William.

Probably more than you wanted to know.

Or MRI which is the only one not used by medical doctors.

oh, hell, i have no idea.

The last three use radiation, the first uses wires inserted in the veins of the patient.
