"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?"

18 Got the t-800 one wrong as well. Arnie says it in the first one just before he leaves the cop shop and then drives in through the front and shoots the place up.

"Got 9 for the movies. (Don't know q3.) Characters, you need your abacus, East. Q1. Just got ""Harry"". Couldn't remember Callahan. That's not good enough is it?! Q2. Put Chief Brody. Couldn't remember Martin. Q3 Nothing, never seen the shite. Never will. Q6. Nothing. Knew it was Robert Duvall, couldn't for the life of me remember character name. The horror! Q7. Just put ""The Terminator"". Ha. Never seen it. All other 5 characters correct. Didn't get bonus. 14? 14.5? 15? 15.5? 16? Dunno."

"Today's round Frankly, I don't give a damn. Lots of points on offer today Identify the Film and the Character for these famous quotes. Point for Each. So 20 points up for grabs. In fact I'll make it 21 by offering a bonus if you can tell the very last line from Gone with the Wind, which I will tell is not ""Frankly I don't give a damn"""

"Good quipping re Ringo, east. I should acknowledge: only got Hobbes / Leviathan from an earlier round... When I did NOT get it. So, truly, this fine quizzing has been most educational. Salute!"

"Especially 10. I awarded myself a point for being close-ish. Knew the Communist one as I wrote a 3,000 word essay on Engels for my Philosophy course at University; it wasn't very good."
