The All New All New Groundspeak UK Pub Quiz


Recommended Posts

Cheers Marty!

 

(When I was a lad I am sure the blocks of flats on Jordanthorp estate nr Sheffield were nickenamed after these three!!)

 

Sticking with the Bard, what was the name of the acting company he belonged to for most of his career? (It actually had two similar names, either being sufficient for the DING)

 

(typo :( )

I've checked out the original thread started in 2006 and the rules are:

 

Rule 1 - No googling!

 

Rule 2 - Try and keep your question at the level someone in a pub quiz might be able to answer...

 

(Forgetting that Rule 2 is, IMHO broken at times) I can see no reference to not being allowed to ask your sister!! :)

 

I have your PM and you are correct so should you feel like posting it before anyone else does...... ;):);)

Staying with the same theme: it's reasonably well-known that Shakespeare's longest play is Hamlet (followed by two other tragedies: Coriolanus and Cymbelene). The three shortest are all comedies - name any of them.

 

(As it happens, I was talking to my sister-in-law last night on the phone, but decided against asking her what she knew about Shakespeare!)

FWIW, my guestimate is:

 

Theresa May (Conservative)

Nigel Farage (UK Independence Party)

Nick Clegg (Liberal Democrats)

David Cameron (Conservative)

Edward Miliband (Labour)

Nichola Sturgeon (Scottish Nationalist Party)

Harriet Harman (Labour)

 

Although I suspect that Joluc and SP's answers are much closer to public opinion!

Think I have the same as crb....

 

Natalie Bennett (Green)

Nigel Farage (UKIP)

Nick Clegg (Lib Dem)

David Cameron (Con)

Ed Miliband (Lab)

Nicola Sturgeon (SNP)

? (must be Plaid Cymru I think)

 

Do I get bonus points for asking why you've not mentioned Al Murray (FUKP)?

 

DING to TheOldfields, the last one is Leanne Wood of Plaid Cymru. As for why no FUKP leader, well I lifted the picture straight from the BBC news site, so blame them for the political bias :P
