Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which of the following is NOT an activity that Magrat expects will take place at the nuptial fair?

Answer: The man who sticks weasels down his trousers

The man with the mustelan entertainment is mentioned in 'Carpe Jugulum' but not 'Lords and Ladies'. It's a brave man who puts his hand in the bran tub considering Nanny Ogg's sense of humor.
2. According to Nanny Ogg, what is "Chateau" foreign for?

Answer: Cat's water

Chat-eau. But she says the Chateau Maison wasn't made with real cat's water; it tastes sharper than the wine.
3. Who wrote The Entertainment to be performed at the wedding?

Answer: Hwel

Read 'Wyrd Sisters' for the convulted parentage which led to Verence becoming King, but when he mentions that his brother (Tomjon) and Mr. Vitoller's men can't come to the wedding as they will be touring Klatch, he says that Hwel the playwright has written something for the wedding - something even rustics can't mess up. Shows how much he knows.
4. What does Jason Ogg tell the other Morris Men that they are NEVER to mention again?

Answer: The Stick and Bucket Dance

Old Mr. Thrum still walks with a limp from the apparent last time they performed the Stick and Bucket Dance three months earlier. When the elves invade Lancre, they end up doing the Stick and Bucket dance and take out several elves. The Webley Twizzle is a real Morris Dance deemed to be physically dangerous.
5. Which of the following Morris Men is correctly identified?

Answer: Carter the baker

The full list is Jason Ogg, Carter the baker, Baker the weaver, Weaver the thatcher, Thatcher the carter, Tailor the other weaver, Carpenter the tailor, and Tinker the tinker.
6. From whom did Granny Weatherwax learn witchcraft?

Answer: Nanny Gripes

She learned it from Nanny Gripes who learned it from Goody Heggety who learned it from Nanny Plumb who learned it from Black Aliss. When Diamanda says "So what you're saying is that nobody has actually learned anything new?", you know her fate is sealed.
7. Which member of Nanny's family influences the outcome of the battle between Granny and Diamanda?

Answer: Pewsey

When Pewsey falls into the magic circle while running across the square (towards Nanny dangling a bag of sweets), Granny looks away from the sun to help him. Diamanda says that disqualifies Granny, but the villagers say that a true witch is someone who would look around when she heard a child scream.
8. Which of the following character names appears in an earlier Ankh-Morpork-based novel?

Answer: Mr. Ixolite

Mr. Ixolite is a part of Reg Shoe's Fresh Start Club in 'Reaper Man'. This may or may not be the same banshee. Agnes goes to Ankh-Morpork later in 'Maskerade'. Lankin is one of the elves. Diamanda is Lucy Tockley, the would-be witch who is the latest girl to be tempted by the Queen.
9. How many times have the Lancre Morris Men won the Fifteen Mountains All-Comers Morris Championship?

Answer: 6

"Three times outright, once after eleven hours extra time, and twice when the other finalists ran away." We don't find out if they won with the Stick and Bucket Dance any of those times.
10. Because of the Librarian, what were play performances in Ankh-Morpork required to include?

Answer: Slapstick

He felt that custard pies, whitewash, etc. was essential, and because a roasted peanut is painful and dangerous when hurled with pinpoint accuracy, Ankh-Morporkians were treated to "The Blood-Soaked Tragedy of the Mad Monk of Quirm (with Custard-Pie scene)".
