Hey Jonathan Hayes 👋

If you open up the Developer Tools in your browser and check the console you'll notice that there is an error happening in your script: 

Uncaught SyntaxError: Identifier 'questionOne' has already been declared (at quiz.js:36:7)

Looks like you're currently declaring multiple variables with the same name (questionOne). You'll want to make sure that each variable has a unique name. After adjusting those variable names your prompts should start showing up as expected 🙂

Hope this helps!
