Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. First off, who's the old bloke who got killed?

Answer: Sir William McCordle

The problem is nobody really cared he was killed.
2. Who is the murdered having an affair with?

Answer: Elsie

This is a trick question, because as we all know, McCordle impregnated Mrs. Wilson while she was working at one of his factories, which is the cause for his murder. However, currently, McCordle is cheating on his wife Sylvia with the maid, Elsie, which gets her fired. As for Bertha, well, who isn't having an affair with her?
3. Who killed the victim- first?

Answer: Mrs. Wilson

Strange business- murdering a man twice.
4. Who killed the victim- second?

Answer: Robert Parks

MARY: "Nobody can stab a corpse and not know it!" ROBERT: "Really? When was the last time you stabbed a corpse?"
5. What does Constance want from McCordle?

Answer: A continuance of her allowance from him

Of course, when McCordle is murdered, her allowance is secured.
6. A famous Hollywood star is present at the hunting party. Who is he?

Answer: Ivor Novello

During the silent era, Ivor Novello was an immensely popular matinee idol. The sad thing is he is nearly forgotten.
7. Who is Robert's aunt?

Answer: Mrs. Croft

His mother as we all know is Mrs. Wilson.
8. Who played Probert, Sir William McCordle's valet?

Answer: Derek Jacobi

9. Who said this line, "Set in London?"

Answer: Mabel

MORRIS WEISSMAN: "Oh, sure. It's called "Charlie Chan In London". It's a detective story."
MABEL NESBITT: "Set in London?"
MORRIS WEISSMAN: "Well, not really. Most of it takes place at a shooting party in a country house. Sort of like this one, actually."
10. Which of these high calibre British actors was not in "Gosford Park?"

Answer: Sir Ian McKellen

Also absent are Dame Judi Dench and Sir Anthony Hopkins. Hopkins may have been too busy cannibalizing to have appeared in this film.
11. What is Constance's response to Morris Weissman's refusal to tell her who is the murderer in his movie?

Answer: "Oh, but none of us will see it."

Such is the snobby way of the upper class.
12. Who is Morris Weissman's Scottish valet, Henry Denton? Really?

Answer: An actor

And no, he's not Scottish, either.
13. Who plays Mrs. Croft?

Answer: Eileen Atkins

Yet another high calibre British actor.
14. What Academy Award did "Gosford Park" win?

Answer: Best Original Screenplay

And people thought "Lord of the Rings" got snubbed. While Gosford Park did beat out "Memento" for Original Screenplay, "A Beautiful Mind" took Best Picture, and both Maggie Smith and Hellen Mirren were beaten by Jennifer Connelly for her part in "A Beautiful Mind." It was also nominated for some of the more minor awards.
15. Final question- which of the two sets- aboves stairs and below stairs-was shot on location?

Answer: Above Stairs

Below Stairs was one heck of a soundstage.
