    OK was in english lesson today and got a few riddles so thought i'd share one with you!

    ______ is a world of television screens.

    It can also adjust the colour and brightness.




    Before you start posting what goes in the gap, i tell you now it is not anything electrical or tv related, theres a first clue. I'll be very impressed with the person who gets it :D:D

    When you get the answer you'll see that it is actually very clever!
