Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Adam's latest love interest in 'Black Canary' was, according to Adam, totally innocent and untouched. By the end of the episode, however, we learn that Elsa may have been so, but was also something else. What was she?
2. What happened when Adam Klaus was locked in a coffin while in a straight-jacket, and buried in the local park?
3. Woken up early with the maid bringing breakfast during a stay in a hotel, Adam's kimono was not securely tied, and after an exchange of innocent innuendo, covered his embarrassment with a flag snatched up from a pile of props. The maid reported him to the police and Adam ended up in the dock on charges of sexual harassment. Just for the fun of it - do you remember which flag he used to cover himself?
4. What animal was sadly trapped when the mechanism under the stage of the theatre jammed during rehearsals in the episode 'The Reconstituted Corpse'?
5. Jonathan devised a trick where, instead of cutting a woman in half, Adam would dissect a ventriloquist dummy. He specifically asked the craftsman for the doll with spare feet, and they ended up taking delivery of a twelve-foot mannequin. With very little time to make a new, smaller, doll, Mr Houseman gave Jonathan one which had been used only once before, but unfortunately when Adam performed the trick on the first night, the man after whom the dummy had been modelled was in the audience - and he was a bigwig in the entertainment industry! Can you remember which one of the Series 4 episodes this was?
6. One of my favourite extra characters is Kitty, Adam's sister. Visiting her brother, and foisted on Jonathan as Adam was entertaining, she witnessed a man strangling a woman in an isolated cottage and brought Jonathan and Maddie to the scene. She never once called him Adam - by what name did Kitty call her brother?
7. Being shortlisted for 'Male Illusionist of the Year', Adam is determined to find out who has won this award to prepare himself for the award ceremony itself. When he finds out who has won it, he absents himself from the event, not knowing that he is due to receive a 'Lifetime Achievement Award' instead (in spite of the fact that Jonathan told Maddie in the strictest confidence, sure she would spill the beans!) Which of the following female impersonators was to win the 'Male Illusionist of the Year award?
8. Unable to commit himself to any one woman, Adam returns from a trip to Japan with his latest girlfriend, leaves her in the taxi and goes immediately into a florist to buy her flowers. Barely half a minute later he is swooning all over the assistant there, and starts a new relationship! Later in the same episode we see him fleeing from her bedroom after seeing - what?
9. Velda won a date with Adam - second prize (the first prize was a tumble dryer) - and he took her to a pub. He had intended to take her to a posh restaurant, but changed his mind when he saw her. When Jonathan met them there, he mentioned another venue, to which Adam was then compelled to take his date. Where was this?
10. In the very first episode Jonathan and Maddie meet because another character, Francesca, met Jonathan at the theatre where Adam chose her from the audience to help with one of his illusions. What was that illusion?
