TARDIS32's Tough Quiz Questions - Rose

So, due to the poll and the tie-breaker I had done, we’re gonna start mixing in the modern series here. Questions per episode will likely be 10 each for standard episodes, and probably 15 or more for ones longer than an hour. It might just end up being however many I feel like doing, or the amount of good questions I can come up with, but expect around 5 per 20-30 minutes of episode. Classic Who will be back, and we’ll then alternate, after I catch up with the modern series (after Aliens of London/World War Three). There won’t be as many bonus questions with the reduced number of regular questions though. Without further ado, here are the questions, enjoy.

Excellent. That’s what I’m going for with these. Challenging but not too unfair, and still fun.

Edit: well, maybe the bonus questions are slightly less fair, but they’re for extra credit.

I didn’t do very well, but I’m happy that I remembered number 2 and totally lucked out on 3 (I swear I just jotted down the first two initials I could come up with and squealed when I revealed the answer).

Oooh thanks for doing Modern Who, the only way I stand a chance.

I got 4 correct, and got 3 bonus points (for some reason the Search Wise scene lives in my mind and I remembered all the terms - but not the results)

My correct questions (I didn’t write down my incorrect guesses, just kept a tally as I went along)

  1. I guessed the alarm clock right.
  2. Got the name of the store correct
  3. Skin like… I love that bit and may have used the phrase in real life lol
  4. He’s gay and she’s an alien, I got the magazine

Wooo thanks :star_struck:
