Buenchico's Big Quiz

[Buenchico]

When I mentioned this on last Friday's BBC Quiz thread, there seemed to be some possible interest in it.  So here goes . . .

I hosted a 75-question quiz night at our local community centre a month ago.  For anyone who's mad enough to want to try it (perhaps with family or friends over Christmas?), here's a link to it:

Instructions (although they're probably not necessary anyway):
To download the zip file, simply click on the 'Download' button.
Save it to anywhere convenient on your computer (such as the Desktop or 'Documents).
To unzip the file, right-click on it and select 'Extract all'.
(The downloaded file can then be deleted).
Double-click the 'Quiz for AB' folder to open it.
The 'Welcome' document explains how the quiz was presented but it's not actually necessary to read it.
The 'Questions' document, unsurprisingly, has the actual questions in it (except for those for the picture rounds, which are the images in the 'Women', 'Flags' and 'Men' documents).
If you see '[Audio]', open the 'Audio' folder and double-click on the question number to play the relevant movie/TV/advert/poetry audio.
Easy peasy!

The winning score on the night was 44/75, so that'll give you a target to work towards!

Have downloaded the questions, Buen. Where do we put the answers?

Thank you!

Looking forward to getting me teeth into that in due course. I doubt very much to be anywhere near 44.

[Buenchico]

It's a DIY job, Tilly2.

Write your answers on a piece of paper and then check them against the 'Answers' document.

 

Hi, Alba.

The lowest score on the night was 15/75.  My two friends in Italy managed 21/75 though, despite obviously being at something of a disadvantage when it came to the (UK-based) TV and advert rounds, etc

Unfortunately all I get is a message saying "cannot open files in archive" so I might have to skip this one 😟

[Mozz71]

don't worry. Figured it out. Stupid tablet! (And even more stupid user)

[Buenchico]

^^^ Try again, Mozz71.

When I first tried, earlier on, the relevant link was simply marked 'Download'.  On trying again now, it's showing as 'Free Turbo Download'.  It's definitely working for me though.

[Buenchico]

^^^ Ignore!

Crossed posts!

[Mozz71]

35 (and a ½ if you let me have that for only getting one of the two Ed Sheeran songs)

 

I should lose most of those points for thinking #20 was Eleanor Roosevelt! (I won't say who it is, but I facepalmed)

[Buenchico]

Well done, Mozz71!

That score would have put you around 3rd place on the night which, given that would have come from a team of four people (rather than from a solo effort), is quite impressive!

Indeed, I'm impressed simply by your tenacity in working your way through it all!

Thanks for joining in!

[Mozz71]

Thank you Buen. It took a while to open all the soundbites, but I'm thankful to have gotten most of them. Including the Kid's programme theme, which was right up my street lol

[Buenchico]

Thanks again, Mozz.

It took me ages to edit all of the audio files, so I'm glad that someone's found them useful 😊
