On Sunday night some friends and I finally played a home-made zoom quiz. Each of us came up with a round worth ten points, and now here for you to play at home is my own contribution, inspired by images from blog posts I never got round to writing (and one I did). Answers are in the comments.
1. PEOPLE AND PLACES: This is a still from a video taken by someone who sneaked into a private swimming pool WHERE? (Ideally I want something more specific than the city.)
2. PROPS: Name the film this prop is from:
3. COSPLAY: This is a cosplay of WHICH sinister character from a series of childrens' books?
4. CELEBRITIES: Here's George Wendt from Cheers standing behind the hosts of Norwegian nostalgia show Gyle Tider. For just ONE point, name THREE other celebrities from the eighties and nineties who turn up in this video to "Let It Be". (Very few points for this because literally everyone is in it.*)
5. GUESSES: How tall is this statue of deceased Indian statesman Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the tallest statue in the world? Closest guess wins.
6. SCIENCE: This Roman God gave his name to WHICH planet?
7. ART: Name the film for which H. R. Giger produced this ultimately unused concept art:
8. TELEVISION: What's the link?
9 and 10. CELEBRITIES: Name BOTH members of the celebrity Hollywood couple you'll find when doing an image search for this Blue Peter presenter. A point each.
* This turned out not to be true.
HERE ARE THE ANSWERS... 1:- The Shard. 2:- King Kong (this was my attempt at a question you think might be a trick question but which isn't). 3:- The Groke (from The Mooomins). 4:- Here's a full list: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0473415/trivia. 5:- 587 feet, or 182 metres. 6:- Saturn. I guess the scythe is a clue, because of Saturn's rings?. 7:- Dune. 8:- Spike. 9 and 10:- LESLIE Mann and JUDD Apatow, but the search continues.
