Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What time of day does the film (after the opening credits) occur at?

Answer: about teatime

I think that this scene is from another film with the "Monty Python" team working over the top. If anybody knows what film it is please tell me and I can put it in this quiz as some "Interesting Information". Thanks.

2. Jesus's supposed belief that "Blessed are the Cheesemakers" is, believed by one man, not meant to be taken literally. What does the man say it really refers to?

Answer: any manufacturer of dairy products

My favourite line in the whole film! "Obviously it's not meant to be taken literally, it refers to any manufacturer of dairy products."
(This is said at the beginning of the film after the opening credits by the rich man.)

3. When a woman is asked if she will buy a stone she says she hasn't "got time to go to no stonin'" her excuse is that "he's not well again.". Who is this unwell person?

Answer: her donkey

This donkey looks apallingly unrealistic, especially when viewed on a DVD, but that just adds to the humour in my opinion. (This is said just before Brian and his Mother meet the stone seller, before the stoning scene.)

4. What (in English) does the graffiti that Brian must write out a hundred times on the walls of the palace mean?

Answer: Romans go home

I have never noticed this but according to my Latin teacher there is a mistake in the grammatical correction that the centurion tells Brian.

5. Now some quotes for you to complete. "He's not the Messiah! He's a ______!"

Answer: very naughty boy

This is said by Brian's mother when Brian's followers are waiting to talk to him outside his house.

6. "Sorry. I thought _____."

Answer: we'd started

Very funny female impressions all round from the "Python" team. (This is said by Eric Idle acting as a woman in the stoning scene.)

7. "Blessed are they who _______." Hint - When Brian is preaching.

Answer: convert their neighbours' oxen

It is quite hard to hear, so those who have watched the film with subtitles may have an advantage. (This is said by Brian.)

8. What is Bigus Dickus's wife called?

Answer: Incontinentia Buttocks

One of the funniest scenes in the film. (This is said when Brian is brought before Pontius Pilate after being caught in the palace.)

9. Hard one (perhaps not to some). What is the crowd's fake character of "Roderick" accused of being? (all of them)

Answer: robber, rapist and pickpocket

Very funny scene, but I do feel sorry for those with speech impediments watching it. (This is said when Pontius Pilate is giving his Passover speech.)

10. And an easy one to finish off with. What is Brian's surname?

Answer: Cohen

We know this as he tells The People's Front of Judea that his name is Brian Cohen and his mother has also already said that his father "isn't Mr Cohen".
