Can you spot the special effects in this question? FX? The first letter in each group of letters is in alphabetical order, and skips three letters each time. The second letter in each group of letters is in reverse alphabetical order, and skips one letter each time. So we need to look for the letter four spaces after R and the letter two spaces before R. Only VP works. Remember the four letter words in question 7? From the letters XH UJ RL ON LP you can make the words HORN, HOUR, ROLL and UPON. Can you think of any more?
