It's the weekly Pub Quiz post!!
December 21st, 2005 08:51 amAfter a two week break (thanks to the lovely Rufus and sickness) we were settled in the 'Gorge for this weeks Pub Quiz. And we were ready and raring to win. (Because we're competitive that way).
Because Claire and Hugh want Pub Quiz bloke to do a quiz at their wedding, we broke with team name tradition this week and called ourselves Claire and Hugh are getting married and want you to do a pub quiz at their wedding reception :)
After the first round was marked there was a note saying (see me) after our team name. (Hugh did and the pair of them are goin to sort out dates over Christmas)
The general knowledge round has a fairly festive theme.
( general ignorance )
Shockingly we only managed 9/15 in this round (mainy due to my incompetence and lack of HP knowledge (boo!)
Picture round was all Christmassy stuff, like Miracle on 34th Street, The Santa Clause and a Muppets Christmas Carol. We also had Christmas Carols and had to fill in the blanks. Unfortunately I can only remember the stupid versions of the songs we sang at School.
For example:
[x] We Three Kings of Orient are, One in a taxi, One in a Car, One on a scooter beeping his hooter, Smoking a big cigar
(The question being how did the three wise men travel to the stable, Camel, Unknown or on Horseback)
[x] While Shepherds watched their flocks by night, while watching ITV, the Angel of the Lord came down and turned to BBC.
(The question being what is the missing line (which on my version is the ITV line))
The sounds round we did much better on. I feel I redeemed myself somewhat managing to guess Billie within two words (It was the scene from The End of the World where she's telling off Cassandra). (Even better only one other team got her right too).
We also got the A-Team right and I correctly guessed the Buffy theme tune (not that it was hard).
The results were totted up, we felt quietly confident and we WON!! (Yay us!) 4 bottles and Grolsch and 4 bottles of Watermelon Reef her ours. Hoorah for us!
Then it was the boys v. girls round. (Which I traditionally do rubbish on). Not tonight though. :D It was TV themes and adverts.
I correctly guessed: Police Squad, Hollyoaks (*blushes*), Friends (although His Lordship reckons he got it before me, but I got the points), Charlie's Angels and Grease. I was on fire!! Sadly the girls still lost 14-15. The boys next to us were very, very good (although they were guessing stuff like Aladdin, y'know films boys shouldn't get).
His Lordship was happy 'cos he guessed The Flumps. Bless 'im.
