Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What was the unit of currency mentioned when selling the quill?

Answer: Florin

The quill was sold for 15 florins. Sufficient to return to England from France.

2. When Chaucer presents Ulrich at Rouen how many generations of nobility does he give?

Answer: 6

Only 4 generations were required but, as you probably know if you've done this quiz, Chaucer never did anything by halves.

3. What does Jocelyn say directly after William is ushered out of the church?

Answer: He's a handsome hunter.

When offered the hand of the churchman to kiss she admires his ring saying, "That is lovely". He stalks off, loudly singing hymns.

4. Who plays the character Roland?

Answer: Mark Addy

Since "A Knight's Tale" he was in "the Time Machine".

5. What song is on when Willliam is doing well in the sword arena?

Answer: Takin' Care Of Business

This song is by Bachman-Turner Overdrive.

6. What does William say Jocelyn reminds him of at the banquet?

Answer: The Bible

Not suprisingly, Jocelyn is quite confused by this comparison.

7. What is the assumed name and the real name of the person William jousts against in the first tournament he wins?

Answer: Sir Thomas Colville, Prince Edward

William realizes that it is Prince Edward but still jousts. It ends as a draw. Chaucer is despairing and Jocelyn incredulous when she sees who it is.

8. When Adhemar realises Ulrich has won all the tournaments what does he do?

Answer: Slams his dagger into Ulrich's crest- the three phoenixes.

He almost attacks his messenger but just stops himself, satisfying himself with a burst of rage.

9. What was Roland's contribution to William's letter to Jocelyn?

Answer: The pieces of my broken heart are so small that they could be passed through the eye of a needle.

Well done if you got that! William's posse may not look very sentimental but they put together a very romantic letter between them.

10. True or false? William loses a tournament for Jocelyn.

Answer: False

If he had lost another match he would have lost, but he won the rest of his matches to become tournament champion, much to the relief of his friends, as they put a wager of 50 florins on him winning.
