RESULTS - ROB'S QUIZ VI

The moment you've all been waiting for (perhaps).

Many thanks to all who took part in Rob's Quiz VI. The standard was, as always, amazing. 198 of the 200 questions were answered correctly. No-one knew that Brer Rabbit was based, in part, on an Ojibwa god called Nanabozho or that Ingmar Bergman's only gothic horror film was entitled 'Hour of the Wolf'. After all that, only one solo emerged:

Q 49: Repo! The Genetic Opera - Michael McPartland

Well done, Michael!!
