    so easy one a question is set, answer it and when it's confirmed you've got it right you set the next question....


    easy one to start with

    Aaaaah - this was a pub quiz question years ago - and we got it wrong with C3PO - because although he's a major character, he doesn't speak - he's a droid, and therefore communicates by making noises with a speaker, and not a voice box.

    The first spoken lines aren't until over 5 minutes into the film - by one of the troopers, and the reply is by Darth Vader.

    I 'spose it all depends on how pedantic the quizmaster is feeling.......

    edit: although come to think of it, that's how Darth Vader communicates too. Hmmmmmm????

    i'm not anally retentive or pedantic so as far as i'm concerned voice was emitted by an ACTOR , yes i'm sorry to break it to you, C3PO isn't real so C3PO is the answer.... all yours kathy. :lol:

    No - neither of those - or not in that order. Would be more specific but that&#39;d narrow it down to far.

    I&#39;m around... but don&#39;t have a clue about recent films. I rarely watch them... that&#39;s MrB and young MrB&#39;s speciality.

    Woohoo

    William Hurt starred in my favourite file (the name of which shall remain a mystery to all) - but he also starred in Lost In Space. What was his (and consequently his family&#39;s) name?

    Sorry - this is actually a really easy question - but I&#39;m too tired to think of a harder one right now.

    In the Harry Potter films, Peter Pettigrew, a schoolfriend of Harry&#39;s father, was wrongly thought to have been long dead. This was because all that had been found left of him was what part?

    by the power of google&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

    filmed in the Mitchell Park Domes in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, but the production budget forced the sequences to be shot in a newly-completed aircraft hangar in Van Nuys, California.

    DR Ape gets it - the interior shots of the space freighter Valley Forge were filmed in the aircraft carrier USS Valley Forge, which was about to be scrapped by the US Navy....

    Your go.

    I&#39;ve just got a memory for silly names - and Billy Speedramp&#39;s one of &#39;em - there was an article on lawnmower racing in one of my brother in laws car mags - and last time I was there I was sat on the loo (as you do......) flicking through them, and read it.

    But I digress - on with the thread - - - - - based on another favourite...
    What (rather tenuously) links Donald Sutherland and Nescafe Gold Blend?

    Donald Sutherland played watcher to Kristy Swanson&#39;s Buffy in the original movie. TV Buffy&#39;s watcher was played by Anthony Stuart Head - MR Suave Gold Blend himself.....( and the PM in Little Britain)
