10 Ghost busters can't forget the possessed Segorney Weaver on the bed!!! 19 Jim Dale 10) Top answer (2pts) and thanks for the video clip. I'm aware that Daveuk1 had that answer lined up, but you beat him to it !
19) Correct, 1pt plus 0.5pt 'Carry On' bonus. I actually preferred "Carry On Again Doctor" in which Dale played Dr Nookie. The scene with Goldie Locks (Babs Windsor) was a vital part of my formative youth !

18) was Christopher Marlowe (although some say he became the anonymous writer for Shakespeare!) I thought he was killed in a fight in a pub? Yes, answer worth 2 points (doubled).
If not the actual author of the 'upstart crow''s plays, Kit was certainly an influence and possibly a collaborator on some of the plays. There are parallel's between the three Henry VI plays and Marlowe's The Troublesome Reign and Lamentable Death of Edward the Second, King of England, with the Tragical Fall of Proud Mortimer. How about that for a title ?
Talking of play titles, a disservice was done to the dynamic and resorceful King Edward IV by the omission of a play in his name, although Henry VI part III would have been the appropriate one.
Re: Marlowe's death, killed by Ingram Frizer, a gentleman friend apparently, possibly in self-defence, following a row over the bar bill. Coroner's report can be found HERE.

Correct for 1pt plus 1pt Quizmeister & Margo bonus plus 1pt quiz completion bonus ....doubled ...... 6pts in all. Little known fact:
According to Mick Jagger, Master and Margarita was the inspiration for The Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil".
The Fatal Eggs is worth a read also, a bit like Jurassic Park in content.
