Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Famous for her work in Crimea, a pioneer of the nursing movement was born in 1820 in which Italian city?

Answer: Florence

Florence Nightingale (the Lady with the Lamp) was born while her parents were travelling in Europe, and was named after the place of her birth. She came from an upper-class family, and was expected to settle down to a conventional life as a married woman. However, she spent her life both nursing, and training others to follow in her footsteps.
2. What were Tootles, Nibs, Slightly, Curly and the Twins known as in J. M. Barrie's play,"Peter Pan"?

Answer: The Lost Boys

Peter Pan is the captain of the boys "who fall out of their prams when the nurse is looking the other way and if they are not claimed in seven days, they are sent far away to the Never Land".

In other versions of the story, the boys have other names, and sometimes there are more than Barrie's original six.
3. Which of these is a computer programming language developed by Apple in the early 1990s?

Answer: Dylan

Dylan is a computer programming language which was derived from Common Lisp and Scheme, but its syntax is similar to that used in Algol. Its name comes from the words DYnamic LANguage.

The wrong answers are also computer programming languages, but they were not developed by Apple.
4. What name is given to a three wheeled vehicle which is propelled by pedalling?

Answer: tricycle

A tricycle is often thought of as a child's first wheeled vehicle. However, there are versions for adults, too, including tandems for two riders. Cycle rickshaws were first used in Asia, but are now becoming increasingly popular in big Western cities such as London. Freight trikes are also popular; some are small ones used by mobile vendors for ice cream or hot dogs, whilst others are carefully designed to take much larger loads inside warehouses or on city streets.

Unicycles, bicycles and quadricycles have one, two and four wheels respectively.
5. In the British sitcom set on Craggy Island, Mrs. Doyle acts as housekeeper to three priests, Father Ted, Father Jack and who else?

Answer: Father Dougal

Father Dougal is the youngest of the three priests. He doesn't appear to understand the concept of Christianity, and is apparently terrified of women.
6. Which animal is considered the most sacred by Hindus?

Answer: cow

Mahatma Gandhi said that cow protection "means protection of all that lives and is helpless and weak in the world". Indian children decorate cows with garlands and paint for the annual Gopashtama festival.
7. In 1979 the UK's Monty Python comedy team produced a film called "The Life of ____". Which name is needed to complete the title?

Answer: Brian

The film tells the story of Brian, who was born in the stable next door to Jesus and was mistaken for the Messiah. His mother insists that, "He's not the Messiah. He's a very naughty boy!".
8. Which word refers to something covered in ferrous oxide?

Answer: rusty

Ferrous oxide is rust. The word, rusty, is also used to describe something which is an orangey red colour, or to refer to someone who is out of practice at doing something.
9. Who was the father of the apostles James and John?

Answer: Zebedee

James and John were the sons of the fisherman - Zebedee.

Zaccheus was the man who climbed a sycamore tree to get a better view of Jesus.

Zadok was the first High Priest to serve in the temple built by Solomon in Jerusalem.

Zechariah was the husband of Elizabeth and the father of John the Baptist.
10. If you were a child, or a parent, in the UK in the 1960s or 1970s, you've probably recognised the link to the previous nine answers. What is it?

Answer: The Magic Roundabout

The roundabout could be seen turning with five horses, one empty, and the others being ridden by two boys and two girls. One of the girls was called Florence (Q 1). I don't remember names for any of the others - there were mentions of 'one of the boys' (Q 2). Dylan (Q 3), the rabbit, chilled out playing his guitar. Mr. McHenry could be seen zooming around on his tricycle (Q 4). Dougal (Q 5) was a dog who looked like a bundle of fur with a face on one end. The spotted cow (Q 6) wearing a blue hat and chewing on a flower was called Ermintrude. Brian (Q 7) was the snail. Mr. Rusty (Q 8) operated the roundabout. The programme usually finished with Zebedee (Q 9) bouncing in on his spring and saying, "Time for bed!".

Serge Danot originally created "The Magic Roundabout" in France in 1963, where it had the title "Le Manège Enchanté". Ivor Wood helped to produce the films. When the BBC bought the series Eric Thompson wrote and performed new scripts for the original films. New names were also chosen for the characters in the British version. The BBC broadcast the 441 five minute episodes between 1965 and 1977. The version shown in the United States was re-titled as "The Magic Carousel".
