  The answer is B. The face on the right of the B diagram has been twisted 90 degrees.

I had five answers: they were from John Bownas (who won the draw), Len Brett, Sky Peacock, John Stafford and David Groom.

Thank you all for having a good go at this puzzle. John Bownas confessed to me that he cut out the diagrams and reformed them to make small cubes which were then be compared.
