"Was difficult to give hints with that one as options would have made it too easy although not surprised Mad Dog cracked it. I always liked Williams to be honest. Thought he was good in Dead Poets Society and Awakenings. Thought Hook was decent, never quite saw the hate for it. Preferred him as a chat show guest than an out and out comedian. Much missed though. Ill post scores up with tomorrow's quiz."

Films are my speciality. I've always been able to recall film and tv dialogue. Learning Spanish at rhe moment and have watched a couple of films I know very well with Spanish turned on to try to see how much I've picked up.

"Blummin awesome Mad Dog and agree with you on Robin WIlliams. He was good in the Fisher King though and, especially, One Hour Photo where he dialled it down a bit. An OK 18 for this lot thanks Zico, there were a few I really should have got, haiving seen the films, but did not."
