Shaun of the Dead Multiple Choice Quiz | 10 Questions

Answer: Simon Pegg

As well as starring in the film, Simon also co-wrote the script with director Edgar Wright. The two had previously worked together on the British sitcom, "Spaced", which Simon had starred in and had co-written with Jessica Stevenson, who appears in this film in a minor but important role.

Nick Frost played Simon's best friend Mike in "Spaced" and appears in "Shaun of the Dead" as his best friend Ed. Dylan Moran plays David and Peter Serafinowicz (the voice of Darth Maul in "The Phantom Menace") plays Shaun's uptight flatmate, Pete.

Answer: Liz

Tired of Shaun's lack of drive and his inability to go anywhere for a night out other than his local, the Winchester, Liz dumps Shaun. However, he still loves her and when the zombies attack he sets out to rescue her.

Answer: A camera

Shaun and Ed do not immediately realise that Mary is a zombie, they think she is simply drunk. When she attacks Shaun, Ed runs into the house and returns with a camera, still thinking that the drunken Mary is trying to kiss Shaun. Shaun has by this point realised that things are a little more serious.

Answer: Sky News

In a cameo role, Sky newsreader Jeremy Thompson informs the nation that the assailants can be killed by "removing the head or destroying the brain".

Answer: Jessica Stevenson

Along with Simon Pegg, Jessica was the co-writer and star of "Spaced". While Shaun leads his group to the pub Yvonne, brandishing a golf club, is leading a group of her own. This second group comprises some of the best of current British TV comedy: Martin Freeman from "The Office"; Reece Shearsmith of "The League of Gentlemen"; Tamsin Greig from "Black Books" and "Green Wing"; Julia Deakin from "Spaced" and Matt Lucas of "Little Britain". None say much more than a word though.

Answer: Dianne

Dianne is an aspiring actress. She quickly studies an impaled zombie and teaches the others how to pass themselves off as zombies so that they can get to the pub without attracting attention.

"Look at the face. It's vacant - with a hint of sadness, like a drunk who's lost a bet."

Answer: Ed

The zombies are initially fooled by the group's zombie impersonations but as the dead can't talk the group's cover is blown when Ed receives a call and starts talking to his friend. The ensuing argument between Shaun and Ed doesn't help matters either.

Answer: Barbara

Unbeknownst to the group, Barbara had been bitten by a zombie on the way to the pub, but hadn't mentioned this as she didn't want to make a fuss. She became a zombie herself and had to be killed by her son Shaun.

David was killed by the zombies, prompting his girlfriend Dianne to set about them, brandishing one of David's legs as a cudgel - if you watch the DVD extras you'll find out that she escaped the zombies by hiding in a tree. Ed is bitten and becomes a zombie but by the end of the movie is living chained up in Shaun's shed, playing computer games.

Answer: Yvonne

Having escaped from the pub through the cellar hatch, Shaun and Liz thought they were done-for until the army arrived, brought by Yvonne who was still brandishing her golf club.

Answer: Trisha Goddard

The British equivalent to Ricki Lake, Trisha is seen, after the defeat of the zombies, presenting an edition of her programme entitled "I Married A Monster!".

Other TV personalities playing themselves include newsreaders Carole Barnes, Krishnan Guru-Murthy and Jeremy Thompson and TV presenter Vernon Kay.
