Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Goodman

The Goodman's comprise of brothers Johnny and Adam who visit their mum, Jackie, and father, Martin, every Friday night for their dinner, though nothing seems to go smoothly for them.
2. The family always seem to be visited by their neighbour, Jim, who always has a canine companion with him. What is his companion's name?

Answer: Wilson

Wilson is depicted as a very tame, friendly Alsatian, but Jim is irrationally afraid of this dog and is seen to be scared to touch him at times.
3. In the first episode of the first season of "Friday Night Dinner" we see Jim in the family's house using their downstairs toilet. There is a specific reason he is using his neighbour's toilet. What is it?

Answer: He broke his toilet at home

Jim tells the brothers at the beginning that he broke his toilet, and tells another visitor to the home later on in the episode. When the visitor asks why, Jim doesn't answer, which suggests it was done on purpose.
4. There are several mentions of Johnny having a girlfriend who doesn't come to dinner, much to Jackie's disappointment. What is her name?

Answer: Alison

Jackie always asks Johnny why Alison never comes to dinner, to which Johnny makes an excuse for her, and Adam implies that Alison is not in fact Johnny's girlfriend.
5. In the first episode Adam has been given a job by his father to get a parcel delivered to his home. It is a set of magazines from the 1960s, but what is the title of the magazine?

Answer: New Scientist

Though Jackie wants Martin to throw the copies he has away, he gets more delivered to Adam's home. He then asks Johnny if he'll look after the ones Jackie wants him to throw away.
6. Adam is thrilled in the second episode of the first season as his music is being used for a radio commercial later on in the evening. What kind of advertisement is the jingle for?

Answer: Car insurance

They sit in Martin's car listening to a duck-shaped radio, and Adam is hurt that only 3 notes of his jingle made it into the final advertisement.
7. Jackie's mum, Nelly, visits for dinner in episode three, and she and Jackie argue over a pair of new curtains that Jackie wanted her family's opinion on. What is said by Nelly to cause the commotion?

Answer: She thinks the curtains look yellow as opposed to them being cream

Johnny and Adam agreed with Nelly and thought they looked yellow. When Nelly was told she upset her daughter, she tried to console Jackie by saying that she could always take them back if she had the receipt.
8. In the third episode of this series, Johnny ends up falling out with his mum as well, and he and Adam end up going to the pub. What problem do they face when they get to the pub?

Answer: Neither of them have brought their wallets

The lack of funds results in the boys buying half a pint and sharing that between two glasses, before running into Jim, who buys a pint for his dog.
9. In the fifth episode, Adam gets into a bit of car bother with a neighbour, Sheila Bloom, who owns what type of car?

Answer: Mercedes

This is repeatedly mentioned by her in the episode, much to everyone's amusement. At the end of the episode, Martin reverses his car into the Mercedes by accident.
10. In the final episode of the season Adam walks in to his parents' home while they are setting up for what seems to be a big occasion. What is about to happen?

Answer: A dinner date for Adam arranged by Jackie

Tanya is mentioned in previous episodes, but this is her first appearance in the series. The date doesn't go well and at the end of the episode we see Tanya and Johnny kissing in the garden, much to the family's shock.
