The Boat That Rocked Trivia Quiz

Answer: Pirate Radio

This movie is set on a boat in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean in the mid Sixties. A seventeen year old boy - Young Carl - is sent by his mother to get straightened up by his godfather. Except that the boat and it's inhabitants are far from straight - they are a group of people who broadcast Rock music on their radio station, to the displeasure of the authorities.

Answer: Richard Curtis

Richard Curtis is an acclaimed director who has directed other such movies as "Four Weddings and a Funeral" and "Love Actually." He also invented "Comic Relief." He has been nominated for an Oscar, two Golden Globes and six BAFTAs, one of which he won.

Answer: James

The boy says goodnight to his parents who tell him to go "straight to bed" and to "sleep tight." He then goes and listens to Radio Rock under his pillow. Thus are we introduced to the boat and the DJs.

Answer: Twatt

Yes, his name is Dominic Twatt. Twatt is a highly educated man who regards any but classical music as awful. At one point Dormandy tells Mr Twatt not to get too friendly with his daughter, as he wouldn't like his grandchildren to be Twatts.

Answer: Tom Hollander

Tom Brooke plays Kevin, Tom Wisdom plays Mark and Tom Sturridge is Carl. Although Tom Hollander has appeared in such films as "Desperate Romantics" as John Ruskin and the "Pirates of the Caribbean" trilogy as Cutler Beckett, he does not appear in this film.

Answer: Beautiful Bob

Bob's nickname is Smooth Bob, the Dawn Treader. He does the dawn shift and turns out to be Carl's Father. Midnight Mark is - according to Quentin - the sexiest man in the universe, Angus the Nut is the fall guy, and Simple Simon is the host of the breakfast radio show.

Answer: Thick Kevin

Thick Kevin is, as his name suggests, very thick. He thinks rabbits are at Christmas, not Easter. Although it is he who suggests that Young Carl's father may be on the boat, leading Carl to find Bob.

Answer: Elenore

Simon and Elenore were married after knowing each other a week. Then Elenore left him after seventeen hours of marriage. The split was publicly blamed on musical differences, but it was really because Elenore had only married him to be close to Gavin, one of the other DJs.

Answer: Jesus

Kevin displays his thickness in a game where you are given a name and have to give clues to the other person. He says this very smugly, but it still takes Young Carl a long time to work it out. When asked why he didn't just say he was the son of God, he revealed that he didn't know that.

Answer: True

The DJs set sail to avoid the authorities but the boat is old and it sinks. The whole crew is rescued, however, by the listeners of Radio Rock, who heard the distress signal they sent out, and thankfully, no one dies.
