101. Why did Sidney Poitier lie about his age to join the army in 1943?

From Quiz Guess who came to dinner? We're so glad he did!

Answer: To escape from homelessness

At the age of 16 Sidney Poitier lied about his age to escape homelessness by joining the army. At the age of 15, his parents sent him to live with his brother in Miami, however Sidney struggled to adjust to the harsh Jim Crow laws of the south. He soon left his brother's home and moved to New York City in the hopes of becoming an actor for the American Negro Theater. Sidney's struggles with reading were a barrier to his finding employment as an actor. He worked washing dishes, but was still so poor he would seek shelter in a local orphanage. In 1943 an opportunity arose for him to lie about his age and join the army for a warm bed and hot meals. However, Sidney only served for 10 months in the army at a Long Island mental hospital for shell shocked veterans. He was disturbed by the horrendous treatment of the patients, so he acted like he was mentally ill himself and convinced a psychiatrist to approve his discharge. He then went back to washing dishes and worked to improve his reading and speech until he was able to land a role on the stage. This question was written by Phoenix Rising's BigTriviaDawg who deeply respects people who work tirelessly to achieve their dreams.

Because Kevin Denis Motors sponsored it, it started with the title "Kevin Denis Auditions". The title was changed to "Kevin Denis New Faces", which was shortened to "New Faces". Olivia was fifteen when she appeared on the show.

103. In 1962, Palin went to study in Brasenose College, Oxford. What was his field of study?

The school, Regis University, gave Bill an honorary Humanities degree years later.

105. Like William Shatner, where did Christopher Plummer learn the basics of acting?

From Quiz Christopher Plummer, True Legend

Answer: Montréal Repertory Theatre

The Montreal Repertory Theatre was founded in 1930. The amateur company attracted young actors and actresses who learned their craft in a number of productions, including "The Perfect Alibi" by A.A. Milne, "Candida" by George Bernard Shaw, and Shakespeare's "Hamlet". Plummer appeared in a number of roles in the 1940s. Besides Plummer and Shatner, many others honed their craft, including Hume Cronyn, another internationally known Canadian actor. The Montreal Repertory Theatre disbanded in 1961 due to a heavy load of debt. Both Plummer and Shatner worked together later when Shatner was Plummer's understudy in a production of "Henry V". It is reported that when Plummer was not able to go on stage one night, Shatner took the stage to replace him, which led to Shatner's first big break into acting.

106. In 1975 and 1976, Dame Helen played the part of Janis Joplin style musician, Maggie Frisby in which musical play, written by David Hare?

From Quiz Helen Mirren. A True Calendar Girl

Answer: Teeth 'n' Smiles

Mirren played the part of Maggie Frisby in this outstanding play set in a time when we thought rock 'n' roll would change the world. Although the play isn't actually based on the life of Janis Joplin, Dame Helen has said that she adopted Joplin's mannerisms and her outlook on life in order to play the role. Talking about the role, Mirren said in "Time Out" magazine in 1975, "When I was first offered the part I was so scared. I've never wanted to play a part so much since I played my first part when I was seven years old. Of course I felt scared about the singing, I love singing but I can't sing." She certainly pulled it off though, and in response to her worries, Nick Bicat, music director for the production, said she can sing "because she's herself and very brave".

107. How did Zero Mostel gain his nickname of Zero?

From Quiz Carry the Zero

Answer: He was a poor student.

Zero earned his nickname from his mother who thought he was such a poor student he wouldn't amount to anything, or zero. The name stuck with him and he used itprofessionally. Despite his being such a poor student, Zero was actually quite intelligent though humorous, always. His father thought he could grow up to be a rabbi, but Zero never pursued it.

108. On their move, Eric & Ernie were unable to bring with them a number of their regular collaborators, most notably their writer Eddie Braben. Which writing duo were recruited to write their first shows for ITV?

Answer: John Junkin and Barry Cryer

When Morecambe & Wise moved, both Braben and producer/director Ernest Maxin declined to accompany them to ITV, as both were happy remaining at the BBC. As a consequence, Junkin and Cryer, who had written the 1972 and 1976 Christmas shows on the BBC, were brought in to script both the first ITV special and the 1978 Christmas show.

109. In May 1926, George and Sadie Bartholomew welcomed their first, and only, child into the world. Although he was always known as Eric, what was his first given name?

From Quiz Morecambe and Wise (I) - What Do You Think of It?

Answer: John

Unlike his future comedy partner, young Eric Bartholomew had no great desire to go into performing professionally, and had to be encouraged by his mother, who paid for dancing lessons and took him to various talent contests in Lancashire.
