Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Warren kicks off the show with a memorable quote. Please complete the it. "Out there is ___."

Answer: chaos

Warren is in his weekly therapy session talking to the unseen therapist who says very little. He's about to go to an interview with a firm of solicitors.
2. Egg is chatting to Miles whilst decorating the lounge of the new flat. In their impromptu game, "Fantasy Roommate", who did they agree, it would be stressful to live with?

Answer: Claudia Schiffer

There are two rooms free in the house and they are wondering who they will get in to fill them. Claudia Schiffer would be stressful to live with because she would overstimulate you every time she walked in the room.
3. We first meet the despicable Delilah in the second episode. She asks Miles a rather pertinent question about a possible previous encounter and leaves what behind on the table?

Answer: An apple

She said it was her lunch and waltzed off flirtaciously. It did the trick on Miles as they embarked upon a torrid affair lasting for the next four episodes.
4. Milly has a non-conventional dietary regime. What is it?

Answer: Food Combining

Food Combining doesn't allow carbohydrates and proteins to be mixed at mealtimes. Milly claims it's a healthy way to live. We first learn about this at the first house meal where Anna constantly lays into Delilah. They haven't hit it off.
5. Anna and Delilah really detest each other. However, Delilah seems to have an ally in Warren. How does Anna turn Warren against Delilah?

Answer: Pouring yoghurt in the sink

Delilah is a bullemic and has been helping herself to Warren's food. For some reason he is particularly passionate about yoghurt for breakfast and when Anna observes a tantrum, she hits on a plan to pour it down the sink. Warren storms off to confront an innocent Delilah who has enough and leaves the house. Delilah was guilty of spilling the whiskey and the theft of the tape as well as a multitude of other crimes.
6. Warren's cousin Kira replaces Kelly the receptionist who takes medical leave. What complaint does Kelly have?

Answer: Appendicitis

Kelly thought she had indigestion and decided to treat it with a turkey sandwich on rye bread. Kira has had her eye on the lucrative position for some time and doesn't hesitate to step in. She makes a bit of a faux pas by flashing at the boss on her first day.
7. Whilst practicing for her driving test, where does Milly think the hard shoulder is?

Answer: Sheffield

For those of you who aren't UK drivers, the hard shoulder is another name for the emergency lane on motorways/freeways. Egg recites this story to Warren whilst stoned.
8. Miles is working on a huge legal case during the first season involving fraud allegations. What is the name of the company at the centre of the allegations?

Answer: Magnitech

Miles was serving as the junior barrister for the case. One suspects that Hooperman, Miles' boss, took Miles on because his father is a stockbroker and might know one or two things. However, Hooperman explains that Miles is good and can rise to a challenge.
9. Anna and Egg's dad Jerry become a bit of an item towards the closing episodes of the first season. They go out clubbing and buy pills from Lanky Roy. Where does Lanky Roy live?

Answer: Clapham

Lanky Roy is in court the following week and has asked for Anna specifically. He threatens to ruin her life unless she helps him out over a supply charge. She is able to get him off the hook but only after a breakdown and some encouraging words from Miles. This causes Anna to review her feelings towards Miles and the two of them end up getting together.
10. Quasimodo makes an appearance at the party to celebrate Jerry's book getting published.

Answer: True

It seems nobody has invited him but he shows up anyway dancing when everyone else has gone home or passed out. It seems that Warren might have done something with Quasimodo although nobody will tell him exactly what.
11. The day after the party, Milly leaves Egg some money for the shopping. How much does she leave?

Answer: £30

She leaves it on their bedside table. One of the party guests goes snooping around the house and liberates it. However, he unfortunately sips on a can of lager which has been used by Egg as a toilet earlier. Ha ha ha!
12. Anna and Miles arrange to meet in the pub to discuss what happened at the party. Hooperman pulls Anna aside at the last minute to discuss the possibility of giving her tenancy at Chambers. She is late to the pub where she sees Miles talking to another girl (about Anna) but she gets the wrong idea. What does she do to register her annoyance?

Answer: Flings a drink over Miles

She is furious at Miles even though he's been talking about nothing but Anna to the stranger who looks fed up at the conversation. Anna's temper has always been her downfall.
13. Miles decides to advertise in the Evening Standard after he gets the all clear on his HIV test.

Answer: False

Miles advertises in Time Out. However, of all the respondents, he decides to meet with three. One who is more than a little conservative, one who is a swinger and the third is Milly, Egg and Anna setting him up.
14. Ferdy comes back into Warren's life when his fiancee throws him out after learning Ferdy occasionally sleeps with men. What is her name?

Answer: Mia

Initially Ferdy blames Warren for outing him but Warren points out that he has done that sort of thing before so there could be any number of potential suspects. We learn that Mia's new fiancee, Seb, was the one who outed Ferdy. Ferdy responds by smashing up Seb's new BMW.
15. Who defends Warren in court on his GBH and Gross Indecency charges?

Answer: Anna

Although Milly has been acting as Warren's solicitor, Anna acts as his barrister. She gets the GBH charge dismissed and he only has to pay a £50 fine. They go to the pub to celebrate.
16. Where does Warren go with his redundancy money?

Answer: Australia

Warren wants to go to San Francisco as it was recommended to him by a policeman he picked up but he couldn't get the visa. He decided on Australia instead. Porthcawl is where he originally comes from.
17. What is the nickname of Mrs Cochran who runs the café where Egg and Nicky work?

Answer: Cockroach

Mrs Cochran is a no-nonsense woman who runs a tight ship. She isn't particularly fond of Egg but does let him work so he can build up his culinary skills. Eventually Egg buys the café with the financial assistance of Miles' father.
18. Miles and his father don't really get on. What is the name of his new wife which Miles takes a shine to?

Answer: Caroline

Caroline stuns Miles at a lunch by saying she's only known Miles' father a week but they've already made plans to marry. Miles meets Francesca at the wedding and they get engaged after a month.
19. When trying to fill Warren's room, why does Anna reject Muriel?

Answer: She wears ankle socks

The drawing up of the advertisment to put in a magazine about the room turned out to be such a drama. Miles speculated that they'd probably end up with a single parent Christian who talks about nothing but Europe. Everyone but Anna liked Muriel. Anna disliked her because she wore ankle socks with her sandals and declared that she couldn't live with such a person.
20. V.obscure question. When Kira finally decides to sleep with Jo, they end up knocking what off her bedroom wall?

Answer: A milk carton

For some inexplicable reason, Kira had hung a milk carton on the wall and this came flying off the wall. After stringing Jo along for 9 episodes, he came to realise he had genuine feelings for Kira, which is what she'd been planning all along.
21. Hark back to the first series. Anna said that if there was a God, he would be into the Beatles.

Answer: Yes

Anna had just failed to get Tenancy at Chambers which she blamed Miles for. Egg went out to comfort her and they ended up discussing how the world was a boring place. She decides to get revenge on Miles by moving in.
22. Fast-forward back to the later episodes of the second series. Benny is the name of the plumber.

Answer: No

The plumber's name is Lenny. The boiler breaks down in the house and the landlord sends Lenny over to fix it. However, there is an instant attraction between him and Ferdy and he finds excuses to remain working at the house.
23. Anna gets offered the junior brief with a very high profile case thanks to her solicitor friend, Sarah Newly. Who is the senior brief for this case?

Answer: Graham

The case involves a 15 year old girl who is alleged to have been raped by her gym teacher. However, Anna is able to prove that the girl is known to Social Services as being in and out of their care and this is all a cry for attention.
24. How old is Francesca?

Answer: 36

Francesca told Miles she was 32 when they first met but she disclosed to Anna that she was actually 36. Francesca didn't expect to be engaged to Miles so quickly and was worried that she's be perceived as a screeching harpie after his sperm. Anna encouraged her to tell the truth and Miles wasn't fazed by it.
25. Whom does Milly punch at Miles' wedding?

Answer: Rachel

Milly finally tells Rachel she doesn't like her so Rachel speaks to Egg and strongly implies that Milly and O'Donnell have been having an affair. Egg runs away whilst Milly realises what Rachel has done. She goes up to her in the middle of "Love Is In The Air" and unleashes her fury.
