*Introductory theme tune*

Yay, 40!

Rules of the quiz:
- One answer per person (per round)
- Always give the answer you think the fewest amount of people would know
- If two people give the same answer in a short space of time, the first person's answer will be accepted (but the second can answer again)
- When applicable, a player may pick the same subject as another contestant and provide a different answer if they believe the other to be incorrect
- If you play the first round, please check back in case you make it through to Round #2
- Resist cheating (i.e. looking up answers; asking others)

And of course, respect your fellow contestants and have fun!

Round #1 will be posted shortly and will remain open until Monday (or, when applicable, until each answer is taken) to give everyone a chance of replying.

The records of previous winners and pointless answers can be found here.

Twenty-eight! We'll soon find out whether that's good or bad. :p

No! Only three more, but three too many. That means Lisa wins her third quiz thirty quizzes after her last win! Good game, both of you, and congrats Lisa.

There's a date by the first win in the original post. We started on the 10th of January, 2014.

Please let the Beatles category be there for the final.

I don't know where it is, sorry. :/ Sometimes I'll include finals that are current, as in I'll take them from iPlayer at the time, but if the category isn't chosen then those questions/topics are gone.

I couldn't find the original, which I think was just 'THE BEATLES' or something, but I did find another for you. I think you'd have a shot at any of the following topics, though, so choose wisely in case it's another 30 quizzes before your next win. Your five to pick from today are...

ALBUMS BY MEMBERS OF THE BEATLES
BRITISH ACTING FUNNYMEN
LITERARY FICTION
NEW YORK
WORD ENDINGS

They all have three sub-categories. Which will it be?

I'm actually not very good at their solo albums. Not good at all. So it's fiction or funnymen... I'll go funnymen.

OK. You know the rules, so! I'm looking for any film made for cinema release before the start of October 2013 starring any of the following

MATT LUCAS
STEPHEN FRY
JOHN CLEESE

As always, no TV films, short films, or documentaries; just credited performances in feature films (voice performances count).

Please specify which your three answers are for. Best of luck!

I don't know who Matt Lucas is.

Gosh, John Cleese has done so much and yet I can hardly think of any.

Stephen Fry - 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy'
John Cleese - 'Die Another Day'
John Cleese - 'Time Bandits'

Okie dokie. For our jackpot of nothing...was Stephen Fry in THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY and is it a pointless answer?

I saw it there and figured you'd remember it. DIE ANOTHER DAY also pointless! Great job. But TIME BANDITS scored 1 point. Terrible.

Nice! He's just narrating, never seen, so maybe people forget him.

Yay. Seems I was very wrong on the least/most likely. 'Time Bandits' was the one I immediately decided I would answer.

First, the other pointless answers. For MATT LUCAS, you could have had

- ASTRO BOY
- PLUNKETT & MACLEANE
- SHAUN OF THE DEAD
- THE INFIDEL

For STEPHEN FRY

- ALICE IN WONDERLAND
- BRIGHT YOUNG THINGS-
- SPICE WORLD

And for JOHN CLEESE...

- THE GREAT MUPPET CAPER
- SPLITTING HEIRS
- RAT RACE
- THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH

So BOUTROS BOUTROS-GHALI would've actually scored lower: only 11 points.

KURT WALDHEIM was the KW, 3 points for him.

And the best answer was JAVIER PEREZ de CUELLAR for only 1 point.
