Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In 'The Pop Star,' what song does Mr. Spooner record for the music company?

Answer: Chanson D'Amour

Mr. Spooner is backed by Mr. Humphries, Miss Brahms and Mrs. Slocombe, with 'doo-dahs' by Captain Peacock and Mr. Rumbold!

2. In 'The Think Tank,' who is in the lift when Captain Peacock presses the button during the fashion show?

Answer: Mr. Mash

And he isn't alone, either...

3. In 'Calling All Customers,' who writes the winning story for the CB commercial?

Answer: Mr. Harmon

Mr. Harmon's Tom Jones-like tale of Jim wins the competition, although the commercial doesn't quite go off the way it was intended.

4. In 'Wedding Bells,' who does everyone think Young Mr. Grace intends to marry?

Answer: Mrs. Slocombe

When Young Mr. Grace asks Mrs. Slocombe for tea, everyone thinks she's the lucky woman...only to find out he intended to propose to another woman.

5. What birthday is Mrs. Slocombe celebrating in the episode 'Fifty Years On'?

Answer: 46th

'Fifty? FIFTY?! I am only forty-six!'

6. What part does Mr. Lucas play in the Ballet of the Toys?

Answer: Little Boy Blue

Mr. Lucas' costume has a slight problem, making him reluctant to take off his raincoat.

7. In 'By Appointment,' how has Miss Brahms spent her holiday?

Answer: taking elocution and deportment lessons

The lessons work like a charm...until the first customer accuses Miss Brahms of mimicking her accent.

8. Who wins the Father Christmas contest?

Answer: Mr. Grainger

9. Who wins the Holiday Girl competition?

Answer: Mr. Humphries

Forced into the contest after Miss Brahms refuses to enter, Mr. Humphries wins the competition by saying that his ambition was to get out of his bathing suit as soon as possible...and because Captain Peacock gives Old Mr. Grace the key to his cabin.

10. What is Mr. Rumbold's first name?

Answer: Cuthbert

11. In 'Gambling Fever,' what part of Mrs. Slocombe's part-crocodile handbag is part crocodile?

Answer: clasp

The clasp is made of a rather small crocodile head. Mr. Harmon gives her ten pounds for it.

12. Who is 'The Agent'?

Answer: Mr. Goldberg

Mr. Goldberg hired out his services to his co-workers looking for better pay. He has a slight problem getting two of them--Mr. Humphries and Mrs. Slocombe--to pay up after he's successful.

13. What song does Captain Peacock sing in the commercial for 'The Night Club'?

Answer: Night and Day

When Captain Peacock says, 'I shall be performing 'Night and Day' on the piano,' he has no idea the context in which his words will be taken later on!

14. In 'Take-over,' who does Mr. Grainger impersonate in order to save Grace Brothers from a hostile takeover?

Answer: Sir Richard Ryan

With the help of a wig and an accent (though what he says is mostly unintelligible), Mr. Grainger does a convincing job of being Sir Richard.

15. What are the only items sold during 'German Week'?

Answer: socks

And any profit made from the socks is lost when Mr. Humphries and Mr. Lucas break two glasses before the German dance begins.
