Hi Graham,
On a British keyboard you press Option+3 to access the hash or number symbol.
On a U.S. keyboard the Option+3 combination gives us access to the pound sign

Hello Bill,
To mark non-contiguous items, interact with the table, press VO-Cmd-Space bar
and if you hear VoiceOver say that the item is unselected, repeat the action.
Navigate to the next item using the VO keys and down arrow, then press
VO-Cmd-Space bar on the one you want.

I don't think it has to do with quick-nav. Just be sure you are interacting
