Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the United States of America, the "A-team" ran for 4 years during the 80s. But, which years?

Answer: 1983 to 1987

The "A-team" was a action, adventure and comedy series that played in NBC from 1983 to 1987. In total, it ran for 98 hours and, although it was considered extremely violent at the time, there were rarely any people hurt in all the action.
2. The leader of the team was "Hannibal" Smith. Who played him?

Answer: George Peppard

His character's name on the TV show was Colonel John "Hannibal" Smith. The character was named after the great Carthaginian general Hannibal.
George Peppard is the only "A-team" cast member to have passed away (in 1994 he died of pneumonia). He was married five times and had three children.
His most famous role, apart from the A-team, was in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" where he played opposite Audrey Hepburn.
3. Another team member was known as Face. He was played by Dirk Benedict. However, in the pilot episode, someone else played this character. Who?

Answer: Tim Dunigan

In fact, Tim Dunigan only played Face in the pilot episode having been replaced by Dirk Benedict. The studio felt that Tim lacked charisma and seemed too young for the part.
The character's full name was Lieutenant Templeton "Face" Peck and he was the team's handsome guy who was also good with the ladies.
4. One of the characters had a huge fear: flying! Which one?

Answer: B.A. Barracus

Team member B.A. Barracus (played by Mr.T) had a fear of flying. In almost every episode, whenever it was necessary to use a plane or a helicopter, one of the other team members had to find a way to put him to sleep - usually they would give him sleeping pills.
His trademark quote was: "Shut up fool!", usually used on Murdock.
5. Another team member was Captain "Howlin' Mad" Murdock - the pilot. He always wore a jacket. What was written on the back of this jacket?

Answer: "Da Nang 1970"

Murdock spent most of his life in mental institutions and usually talked to people, objects and things that didn't exist.
However, he was a great pilot.
One of his funniest moments is when he speaks of the liberation of golf balls.
6. How about women? Were there any on the team?

Answer: Yes

There were actually two women on the team, but in different moments. First, was Amy Allen (played by Melinda Culea) and then Tawnia Baker (played by Marla Heasley). Neither of them was a part of the team for long. Amy left in the second season and Twania shortly after she became a member (the fans didn't like her and felt that Amy was more suitable for the role).
7. The team had a special black van with red ailerons. What model was it?

Answer: G-series

The two most distinctive cars used were the black van and a white corvette which belonged to Face.
The van had different license plates and sometimes, in some episodes it even had different plates on the front and on the back.
8. During the first season, who was the team's primary enemy?

Answer: Colonel Lynch

Since the story referred to an elite army team which was arrested for a crime they didn't commit and manage to escape, it was only natural that someone from the army would chase them. In the first season, that man was Colonel Lynch. He was the director of the prison the A-team escaped from.
Decker chased them from second to the fourth season; Fullbright during the fourth season and Stockwell during the fifth season.
9. What does the A in "A-team" stand for?

Answer: Alpha

It is a military term. The Alpha team is usually the attack team while the B-team (Bravo) is the support team.
10. What was Hannibal's favourite quote?

Answer: "I love it when a plan comes together!"

He would say this sentence in every episode.
Another sentence which was often said was "He's on the jazz"
