Quiz: My Attempt...

[Ellie]

Phil may have done a similar quiz, apologies, but I’m useless at music!
15 questions, answers Thursday, if that’s ok, I’m busy Friday morning.


TV & Film Trivia Quiz.

1. Coronation Street is the UK’s longest running soap; in which year was it first aired? (you can have a margin of +/- 2years)

3. How many times has Ian Beale been married?
4. Walford : London as Hollyoaks : ???
5. Who is the main character in Breaking Bad? (first and last name)
6. Who is the main character in The Handmaid’s Tale? (first name only will do)
7. Who played Queen Elizabeth in Black Adder?
8. Who played Manuel in Fawlty Towers?
9. Which female actor won the most “Best Actress” Oscars?
10. Which male actor won the most “Best Actor” Oscars?
11. Which of these films is the highest grossing box office hit: Avatar, Skyfall, Star Wars: The Force Awakens?

13. For which film did Steven Spielberg win his first Best Director Oscar?
14. In which film did Jack Nicholson say, “You can’t handle the truth”?

Good girl Lynda.

I think that's the trick - I'll bet you all know more answers than you think and, with rumination, that grey matter will throw out another answer or two. 🤞🤞
