Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Jed is played by whom?

Answer: Martin Sheen

John Spencer plays Leo, Harrison Ford was the President in the movie 'Air Force One'. Ed L. Junior was just me being strange!

2. Who was the President's secretary in the first and second season?

Answer: Dolores Landingham

Mrs Landingham died tragically at the end of the second season in a car crash. Charlie got the call and when Leo asked if she was alright he replied 'No, she dead.'

3. Who is the President's secretary in season four?

Answer: Debbie Fiderer

Debbie had worked in the White House previously, but had been fired. Charlie wanted the President to hire her because she recommended Charlie when he got his job at the White House. She has since changed her name.

4. How many children do Jed and Abbey have?

Answer: Three

Elizabeth, Ellie and Zoey.

5. Who is Jed's best friend?

Answer: Leo McGarry

Leo is also Chief of Staff. Abbey is the First Lady. Ron Butterfield is Head of Security. Roberto Mendoza was the President's nominee for the next Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court in the first season. In series one we also see Leo overhear the President talking to the Secretary of Agriculture and saying: "You got a best friend? Is he smarter than you? That's your chief of staff."

6. Said of Lord John Marbury: 'The drink we can hide but the man deserves a date.'

Answer: False

'The women we can hide but the man deserves a drink.' Leo and Lord John Marbury do not get on at the best times - 'Oh, I thought you were the butler!'

7. What football team does the President follow?

Answer: Notre Dame

We see Jed wearing Notre Dame sweatshirts often.

8. Is the President hurt in the shootings at Rossyln?

Answer: Yes

He was shot but it wasn't too bad. Josh on the other hand had major surgery and his condition could have been fatal.

9. Complete the quote 'I'm tired, I'm __________, and my wife's in Argentina.'

Answer: cranky

And then the senior staff have to tell him everything that went wrong in the time he was gone - that would be CJ having emergency root canal and Josh doing the press briefing (apparently the President has a secret plan to fight Inflation) and Judge Mendoza being arrested for drink driving (strange when if he had been over the limit he would be dead due to his liver condition). Bet he cheered up after that meeting!

10. An easy one to finish. What illness does Jed have that he kept secret from the public until the season two finale?

Answer: Multiple Sclerosis

He has a relapsing, remitting form of Multiple Sclerosis. Abbey gives him injections of betaseron.
