Nyder's Fiendish Festive Quiz 2013

[Nyder]

Duncan - yes you did :-)

[duncan]

[SiHart]

Well I'll be intrigued to see the answers tomorrow

[Dirk Gently]

As will I. I'm never quite sure if I've actually got them right, especially the Doctor Who ones.

I know I'm rubbish at the music stuff.

[Nyder]

Nyder's having a massive dump tomorrow morning.

A massive dump of answers of course. And if you're very lucky .. an update on the scores as well :-)

[Dirk Gently]

Nyder's having a massive dump tomorrow morning.

EEEEEWWWWWWWW!!!! T.M.I.

A massive dump of answers of course

Oh, I still didn't need that first image in my head though.

[Nyder]

Right so where were we? Ah yes, Friday 13th! The characters were:-

Count Grendel
Prince Reynart
Archimandrite

All from Brendan’s fave story – “The Androids of Tara”

Saturday 14th – the audio clip was that of Christopher Lee

Sunday 15th – the 90’s Number 1 clips were:-

The Shoop Shoop Song (Cher)
Black or White (Jacko)
Deeply Dippy (Right Said Fred)
Mr Blobby (sorry about that!)

Monday 16th – Who audio clip was “The Bells of St John”

Well done to one and all! I’m still waiting for that fiendish question that will fox everyone….

So what’s that done to the scores…..

Day 17 and Andrew Curnow is playing his first joker today. It's back to the Who lit. Which book is this passage from:-

[SiHart]

Christopher Lee? Damn! It's obvious now you say it!

And curses for Mr Blobby! Bah!

[duncan]

I didn't get Mr Blooby either but it took quite a few listens before I got Christopher Lee.

Today's one is a toughie for me as i don't recognise that passage of text at all.

[Jon Masters]

I thought Mr Lee didn't sound as gravelly as usual, but got it from being in over 200 films.

I was also very lucky to spot Blobby lurking in the background as it were.

Today ... hmm, I have an inkling about today, i'll have to have a ponder......

[Jonno]

I got Mr Lee mainly from the context - I've heard him say various times that he gets fed up with everyone referring to him as Dracula when he's done so many roles! I still want to see him appear in Who though!

The latest scores are exciting - it's all up for grabs and Mr Curnow now makes a strategic charge with 3 jokers to play!

I only got Black and White - I found having them all play simultaneously very difficult because once I'd heard B&W it remained the only one I could hear - tried to blot it out but to no avail!

[Richard Brinck-Johnsen]

Allegedly Lee was offered a Big Finish role but his agent responded that he hates Doctor Who!

[Stuart Wallis]

Would that have been Christopher or Rusty?

[Dino]

I find it great that Christopher Lee hates Doctor Who. He's got more class about it than Trevor Eve.

A shame, as the show is crying out for a Christopher Lee singing spot!

[Jon Masters]

Hmmm - it's not what I thought it was.

But I have just skim-read through a Target book I bought ages ago but had never read !

[duncan]

I don't have a scoobie on this one. It's looking like it will be the first question that I can't submit an answer too.

[duncan]

I have decided to submit an answer but it's a total stab in the dark.

[Jonno]

This has stumped me - have skim read 3 books to no avail so no idea now.

[Jon Masters]

Wild guess from me too

[Nyder]

Hee hee hee

[Nyder]

Yesterday's was very fiendish - however, 3 of you got it right. The answer was:-


Some of you even got the story name (A New Life) but no extra points for that!

[Nyder]

Two jokers being played today - Jonno and Mr Curnow (again!)

Back to the TV themes (did I hear a groan??) Name the programme:-

Dammit, Butch - I thought it might be an Annual, but only checked 1976 and 1977
