Can you solve this New Year's Eve brainteaser?
Christmas is well and truly over, you’ve watched all the specials on TV, polished off the tin of Quality Street and eaten enough leftover turkey to last you for the next 12 months.
Now, you need something to wake you up from your food coma and get you in the mood for partying the night away on New Year’s Eve.
Let’s face it, no one wants to be the one person who wasn’t able to stay awake for the midnight countdown.
So, why not try this puzzle in an attempt to get your brain back in gear before you put on your best frock, grab a glass of champers and tuck into the canapés?
Created by the team at GiftsOnline4U, the brainteaser shows row upon row of pocket watches giving the time as five minutes to midnight.
But while it might seem like they are all identical, there’s actually a very subtle difference.
