Gimme Five Trivia Quiz

Answer: Nigel Mansell

Nigel Mansell's first drive in Formula One with the red five on his car was in the 1985 season when he joined the Williams-Honda team.

Whilst Mansell was at the peak of his career, the only requirement from the FIA was that the world champion carried number one on his car with his team-mate carrying number two.

Prior to the start of the 1996 season, this changed so cars were numbered sequentially with teams being allocated numbers based on where they finished the previous season in the constructors championship.

Answer: James

Thomas, Edward and Gordon were all blue in colour and were numbers one, two and four respectively. Henry was green and was number three, whilst James was red and number five. The engines were all based on a fictional island called Sodor.

When initially made for television, the stories were narrated by former Beatle, Ringo Starr.

Answer: The Final Frontier

"The Voyage Home" was "Star Trek IV" and "Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country" was the last to entirely feature the original crew, led by Captain Kirk). The movies that primarily featured the crew from "Star Trek: The Next Generation" were not specifically numbered, however "Generation" was the seventh film of the "Star Trek" franchise.

"Star Trek V: The Final Frontier" is generally accepted as one of the weaker films in the series.

Answer: Babylon

"Babylon 5" was set in the mid 23rd century, shortly after a war between Earth and Minbar. The station itself was the fifth attempt at setting up a space station where alien species could try and resolve their differences peacefully.

Answer: University

The "Repton" series of games was originally written for the BBC Microcomputer and the Acorn Electron. It required the Repton character to collect diamonds (some of which were locked in safes) whilst avoiding monsters or getting hit on the head by a rock.

"The Life of Repton" was similar to the fourth set of puzzles in so far as the standard graphics were replaced by graphics relating to the theme. For example, in the Baby levels, Repton crawled around collecting teddy bears instead of diamonds.

Besides Baby, School and Teenager, the other two level options were Work and Old Age Pensioner.
