Bad Boys!

15 Points Per Correct Answer - No time limit  

1. Paul Trueman's arrival in the Square upset his mother far more than anyone else, as she considered him to be a bad lot. His brother, however, was sympathetic towards him because he knew something he believed his mother did not know. What was this supposed secret? that Paul took the blame for a crime Anthony committed that Anthony had taken an overdose and Paul saved his life that their father had framed Paul for a robbery that a mutual friend had stolen the love of Paul's life

2. This man had a finger in most dodgy deals, being the leader of a mafia-type organisation. He became engaged to two different ladies on the Square, and believed himself to be the father of the second son of one of them. His daughter Annie tried to take over his empire when he left for New Zealand. Who was this? Answer: (both names, or just first name)

3. Minty's greatest moment came when he opposed Andy Hunter in his marriage to Sam Mitchell, but this hardly gave him the status as a 'bad boy'. In what unpleasant guise did we first meet this man? he was Phil's bully-boy henchman he was an overbearing landlord's manager he was the bouncer at 'Angie's Den' he was Andy's main drug dealer

4. This yo-yo of a second-hand car salesman always seemed to bounce back, forever rising from the ashes as a colourful phoenix ready for his next deal. A smooth talker with a rough voice, he was also one for the ladies, but how many times did he actually lead a woman up the aisle and back again as Mrs Frank Butcher? three four two five

5. Nicknamed Tricky Dicky, Richard Cole was merely a smooth operator who often found himself out of his depth. A ladies' man, he had affairs with a number of women in the Square, but with which one did he go to Tenerife on a purely platonic holiday? Michelle Fowler Cindy Beale Kathy Beale Rachel Kominski

6. With just a few exceptions over the years, this original cast member was more sinned against than sinning. OK, he did try to kill Wicksy, and he often pulled a fast one to make a quick pound and to dispose of his competition, and he behaved abominably towards his third wife when he found out she had not been completely faithful, but he wasn't that bad - was he? Who was this? Answer: (both names or first name only)

7. Simon Wicks' claim to being a 'bad boy' stems from his treatment of Cindy Beale. Discovering she was pregnant, she agreed to marry Ian, but wanted to be with Wicksy. He abandoned her and his son after they left the Square, running away a second time to go to which country? Australia South Africa Canada New Zealand

8. It could be said that Martin Fowler was an original cast member, as the very first episode saw his parents being told by the doctor that he was expected! Since that time he has been in trouble of one sort or another, from his young days right through to being a married man. What was the name of his partner in crime during his teenage years? Asif Jamie Ashley Jacky

9. A chip off the old block, Ashley Cotton abandoned his mother to live with his father, coming to live in the Square with grandmother Dot. Under a sort of apprenticeship to Nick, his life of crime escalated as his father taught him more about theft and double-dealing. In an amusing Christmas story, they stole someone’s Christmas decorations, food and even presents – whose Christmas did they take? the Beale family's the Evans family's the Fowler family's the Mitchell family's

10. This man admitted to his schizophrenic son that he was unable to commit himself to anything or anyone, and left Walford for the last time. He was right. He was not a bad person by any means, but often came across that way because he could not content himself with a regular relationship, and forever looked over the fence at his neighbour's greener grass (usually his wife!). Who was this used-car salesman? Answer: (first name or both names)

11. Wilmott-Brown was a smooth operator who was one of the yuppie element introduced to Walford in the early years of the soap (we have not seen much evidence of such characters since the early 1990s). His moment of bad boy glory was raping Kathy Beale, and thus starting the break-up of her previously rock-solid marriage. What was this bad boy's Christian name? Patrick Michael William James

12. Dan Sullivan's appearances in Walford were a roller-coaster of misunderstandings and double-dealing. After destroying the Jackson family by sleeping with mother and daughter at the same time, he was installed in one of the Square's institutions with the help of resident bad boy Phil Mitchell. Which business was this? the pub the nightclub the launderette the used car lot

13. His greatest moment was when he killed Saskia Duncan in self defence, and then tried to cover it up. Had Steve Owen gone to the police immediately, it would have been seen as accidental, but his determination to hide the body and cover his tracks led to imprisonment for both himself and the person who witnessed the event. Who was this person? Matthew Rose Billy Mitchell Joe Wicks Robbie Jackson

14. He appeared in the very first episode in 1985 and was killed by the mob in 1988. A bit of an icon, Den Watts lived on in the memory of all, and his return to the Square in 2003 was explained by tales of hiding from the Firm who had a contract out on him. His 1988 death scene took place on the canal bank, when he was shot by a gun hidden in a bunch of which flower? roses daffodils chrysanthemums geraniums

15. For a while it looked as if this bad boy was turning away from his gangster past, but that proved to be incorrect! Andy Hunter not believe in getting his own hands dirty - preferring instead to call on a whole host of minions in order to fulfil his threats. One lady in particular was very aware that he could, and would, inflict much pain on a loved one, and gave in to his blackmail, even though it almost cost her marriage. Which Slater sister was this? Lynn Hobbs Belinda Peacock Mo Mitchell Kat Moon

16. The elder of the Mitchell brothers was certainly one for the ladies, and his conquests included his sister-in-law and the fiancee of his main business rival, Steve Owen. He was married three times, and also lived with one lady for a long period of time. Which of the following was his common-law wife? Nadia Kate Kathy Lisa

17. Nick Cotton's bad boy career started long before 1985, and he was in the very first episode of the soap in that year. Nick was responsible, in one form or another, for the deaths of three of the following characters. Which one of these did he not kill? Eddie Royle Andy O'Brien Reg Cox Ashley Cotton

18. This man was placed at number three by the UKGold viewing public, even though he was only involved in a couple of shady deals; we first saw him at his mother's funeral, handcuffed to prison wardens. Later we witnessed the murder of gangland boss Jack Dalton, and this man's shared involvement in the frame-up of local bully-boy Phil Mitchell. Who was this? Answer: (first name or both names)

19. These brothers provided almost a decade of entertainment for viewers as Grant and Phil shared women, businesses and crime. Grant ended up in prison at one point, and while there Phil started an affair with his wife Sharon. How did Grant retaliate? he shot him in the back he beat his brother so badly he ended up in hospital he framed him for robbery and sent him to prison he told the police about Phil firing the car lot

20. This man deserves top slot in the Bad Boys list. Trevor Morgan was obsessed with his wife, so much so that he would beat her up on a regular basis, usually because she had not behaved in a 'wifely fashion'. When Little Mo did retaliate and defended herself by hitting him with an iron, he had her brought before the law on an attempted murder charge. Did Little Mo go to prison after the court case? Yes No
