Daily Quiz anyone?

[easthammer]

"If you are stuck at home and bored like me. How about exercising the old grey cells? I have for a number of years run quiz nights and couple of times a year. I was due to do one tomorrow which is now cancelled So I have a bank of questions sitting in my computer's hard drive. They are quite eclectic in their nature. I am thinking I could put up a set of questions for which you write down your answers. After 30mins or so I will put up the answers. DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS. before I post the right answers. You mark your own answers and post your score. I will then record the scores and at the end of the ""lockdown"" we will see who is WHO's brainbox supreme. Obiviously no looking up the answers (you only cheat yourselves) Word of warning these won't be easy questions as they have been devised for teams of six. Forming teams on here might be too problematic. So I'll try to pick out the easier questions. Any interest?"

Two for me

[geoffpikey]

"6. Didn't get 4,5 nor 9,10. But only got Q2 correct because I knew LoftR was largely filmed in New Zealand. Is Jackson himself a New Zealander? Who cares! And would not have got Q1 without a connection to 2 .(prob would have guessed The King's Head... Which comes nowhere!) Thanks east."

[easthammer]

"Today's Answers did you make a connection? 1.

[kips]

Yeah the ' loose connections' hint helps. Although one looks a bit tenuous I think. Could be on for 7/8 hopefully.

[geoffpikey]

"Without hint of connections east, I'd be a bit lost here. As it is, working backwards and forwards, think I have 6. Nice one. And thanks for Mary Poppins clarification yesterday."

[easthammer]

"Today's round Loose Connections 1.

[easthammer]

"GeoffP In answer to your point of order The new film was ""Mary Poppins Returns"" not ""Mary Poppins"""

[zebthecat]

6 and I did have Stoke down.

[geoffpikey]

"Got 6. Bank of ""England"" Q is an olde classic. Gordon Banks was a Toss up. I very NEARLY had Stoke down but..."

[The_Phantom]

2.5 for me

[easthammer]

"Today's answers 1.

[geoffpikey]

"Oh, I can SEE Mr Banks. No idea of actor's name though. Point of order: wasn't film recently remade? With, one assumes a different actor. Not that I'm getting that one either. :-)"

[zebthecat]

7 I think. The Mary Poppins actor is bugging me as I can picture him flying that kite.

[geoffpikey]

"As I am working for the RofW today, some much needed fun. Not going to be a high return though. Reckon it's a 4 or 5. Is the answer to 8: Media Wank Bank? Sorry. I actually know that one."

[easthammer]

[zebthecat]

7. Both years and the wrong song.

[kips]

On safer ground here. Got 7/10 one year out on the book date.
