*Introductory theme tune*

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.

ROUND #1 RESULTS

All right, nine players this round - welcome back to the quiz, Sierra and Scott - so we unfortunately have to lose three of you now and four of you in the next round. The three we're saying goodbye to are...

Carl: 40 (CHARLIE CHAPIN)
Scott: 38 (MIKE MYERS)
Bruna: 21 (LINDSAY LOHAN)


Practice: 17 (CINDY CRAWFORD)
Sierra: 17 (ALAN ALDA)
Sarah: 13 (FARRAH FAWCETT)
Lisa: 9 (HELEN HUNT)
Jeff: 7 (KEIRA KNIGHTLEY)
Kaleb: 5 (RYAN REYNOLDS)

Carl, Scott, B - thanks for playing! Commiserations, and as Apu says, "Come again". Well done to Practice, Sierra, Sarah, Lisa, Jeff, and Kaleb.

Let's fill in the blanks. There were no pointless answers available; the only score lower than Kaleb's was the answer for OSCAR AND TONY AWARD WINNER, MARRIED TO PHOEBE CATES - 4 points for KEVIN KLINE.

The highest scorer was TINA TURNER on 60 points (BORN IN TENNESSEE, SANG 'SIMPLY THE BEST' IN 1989)

The others were bigger scores in relation to the round, but not in general. COURTNEY COX scored 20 points (ONE SIXTH OF THE 'FRIENDS' MAIN CAST); LEONA LEWIS ('THE X FACTOR' WINNER IN 2006) scored 23; and the DIRECTOR AND STAR OF THE 2010 FILM 'THE EXPENDABLES' was SYLVESTER STALLONE, who scored 27 points.

Sorry about that Joey. I know from prior conversations you were accepting spelling differences if it sounded "like" the name but I could not remember the exact name which is why I listed 3. So I'll go with Jimmy Young choice, my first one above.... Thanks all for letting me fix it.

No worries! I didn't mean "sounds like" as in, for example, Aaron Bodgers instead of Aaron Rodgers, but if someone were to spell it Aaron Rogers (minus the d in his surname), then I could accept that. It's if the pronunciation is the same or very similar that it's fine, but not if there's a significant name change.

Just waiting on Sierra now and then I'll get the results up.

Literally the first thing that popped into my head, haha. Probably because your post/avatar was right above, but it wasn't a conscious decision.

ROUND #2 RESULTS

Results are in! The two of you through to our Head-to-Head this quiz are...

Kaleb: X 100 (DAVID GUETTA)
Jeff: X 100 (FRANK SINATRA)
Lisa: 41 (THE BANGLES)
Sarah: 14 (JOE COCKER)


Sierra: 9 (MARIAH CAREY)
Practice: 5 (JIMMY YOUNG)

...Sierra and Practice! You've faced each other once before - fourteen quizzes ago! Congrats you two, and commiserations to the rest of you. Kaleb, I guess David Guetta's song didn't make it to #1 here, sorry. And Jeff, that's not a particularly bad guess (and a great artist ) - he did sing one of the songs on the list: SOMETHIN' STUPID (with his daughter Nancy). It still wouldn't have seen you through, though (18 points). I guess people still remember the original, Lisa. And Sarah, close one! Tough luck.
