I put my comments on last week's quiz.
13 I think I've got 13! 🙄

[Nettie]

A possible 14 but that’s with a couple of guesses x

[Bowler]

I thought I didn’t know much about musicals but I reckon 11 possibly 13. Will have to have a guess at the others.

[GaryM]

You're playing to my strengths, Phil. I'm married to someone who is musicals mad and watches every repeat on TV. I've been subjected to them for over thirty years and know a lot of the lyrics, even songs I hate. 16 plus 2 guesses. If you do sport I'll be last by a mile.

[Bowler]

Back of the net Gary. Oops sorry that’s a football term 😂

[richard]

Denise I certainly have 11 plus some guesses

Richard

[denise]

I have a few guesses as well Richard. You know when you sort of sing along and you know who it is but your brain is in the fog somewhere. I feel like that.🙄

[denise]

For a moment I thought Gary was going to sing

[GaryM]

For a moment I thought Gary was going to sing

Be careful what you wish for. I couldn't sing when I could speak, I certainly can't now. I could do a good impression of a sea lion.

[Deb]

I am firmly on the naughty step and I'll probably be banned from future quizzes.

I love musicals and was doing well with the questions until I mentioned one to my husband. He disagreed with the answer and it was driving me bonkers so I had to Google it to prove him wrong. We really need to get out more 🤣

I promise to be good next week x

[Bowler]

Thank you for coming clean. I know what you mean about driving you bonkers. Just strike that one out. How have you done with the rest.

by the way who was right as if I need to ask 😁

nothing wrong with a bit of friendly rivalry just so long as no pot throwing is involved 😁

[denise]

Oh good on you for admitting you've been bad Deb! What's wrong with pot throwing?

[Admin_MND]

Musicals are one of our favourite subjects so couldn't resist having a go at answering the questions. We reckon there's about two we're not completely sure of, but know and have seen most of the rest!

Looking forward to seeing the answers.
