Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is Vince's surname?

Answer: Noir

Vince Noir is played by Noel Fielding, who co-writes and co-stars in the show with Julian Barrett. Barrett plays Howard Moon.

2. Which of the following has Vince not been referred to as, either by himself or others?

Answer: Goth giant

Although Vince did have a short-lived goth phase in Series 2, he was referred to as a goth fairy, not a goth giant.

3. In the episode 'Killeroo', Bob Fossil performs a dance for Howard Moon and then says 'And that's why I don't like _________.'

Answer: Cricket

'Killeroo' was the first episode of the first series of 'The Mighty Boosh'. Bob Fossil summons Howard to his office and then performs a very random dance for him to a 10cc track. The point of this seems to be to express Fossil's dislike for cricket! Bob Fossil is played by Richard Fulcher.

4. Which animal does Fossil refer to as 'the hairy Russian carpet guy'?

Answer: Bear

Fossil says this in 'The Hitcher', which is the final episode of the first series. He is talking to a group of children and their father, just before Howard and Vince start playing some music for the bear to dance to. Unfortunately the bear hates the music so much he breaks through his cage and goes on a rampage!

5. In the episode 'Fountain of Youth', Bollo says that his 'press age' is 29.

Answer: True

'Fountain of Youth is the fourth episode of series 2. Bollo says this to Vince, when discussing how old Howard looks. Bollo goes on to say that his real age is 40. He is a gorilla and is the familiar of Naboo, a shaman. Naboo worked in the zoo with Howard and Vince in series 1.

6. A certain type of sweet is present in one form or another in many of the episodes of series 1. What is it?

Answer: Polo

Polos can be seen in the opening titles, on the outfits of the minions of the Ape of Death and framing the eye of Baba-yagu (a.k.a. The Hitcher), for example.

7. Noel Fielding's brother plays which character on the show?

Answer: Naboo

Naboo is played by Michael Fielding. The name 'The Mighty Boosh' comes from a haircut that Michael had when he was younger. Noel overheard Michael's Portuguese friend calling it a 'mighty bush'.

8. Who is Vince's hero?

Answer: Gary Numan

Vince adores Gary Numan and mentions him repeatedly throughout the first series. Vince is a huge fan of electro music and even joins an electro band in the seventh episode of series 1, which is aptly titled 'Electro'.

9. 'Do you love me?' is sung by Noel Fielding in series 2, but which character is he playing at the time?

Answer: Old Gregg

Old Gregg sings this song to Howard in the episode 'The legend of Old Gregg', which is the fifth episode of series 2. Old Gregg is a legendary monster who wants to marry Howard, but Howard is rather uncomfortable with the idea, to say the least! Noel Fielding and Julian Barrett both play a wide range of characters in the show.

10. Howard Moon is a huge fan of glam rock.

Answer: False

Howard is actually a huge fan of jazz and has a tendency to go into a 'jazz trance' when listening to it. It is Vince who loves glam rock (and electro, of course!).
