And the answer is...

B.
19 Definitions & 19.1c : A player in touch may kick or knock the ball, but not hold it, provided it has not crossed the plane of the touch-line. When a defending player gets the ball inside the 22, or that player's in-goal and kicks into touch, the throw-in is where the ball went into touch. The player is inside the 22 if he has one or both feet on or behind the 22-meter line.

Ball kicked from the 22 and no mention of a take back. So well done to most of you.
