Francesco Vendetti who plays Nero's adopted brother Brittanicus in "Nerone" was also the voice of Jeno Varga in the Italian-dubbed version of "Canone Inverso". But what connection does his mother have to Hansland? Five points if you just knew One point if you google Keep your own score Now for your questions? Can you stump me?  Maybe we can use them for an "I know Way too much" quiz Rider - it has to be about movie Hans not real Hans. Doh. |

Here's a dandy.
Connect American actor Dann Florek to Hans.

Dann Florek was in Beautiful Joe with Jaimz Woolvett
Jaimz Woolvett was in Joan of Arc with Rick Warden
Rick Warden was in several films with Hans Matheson
Dann is best known for his roles in Law & Order, and Law & Order:SVU, two popular American crime shows.

In the "Virgin Queen" the part of Essex's nemesis, Robert Cecil, is played by Daniel Evans. I wonder if this is the same Daniel Evans who was "Isaac" in that Cuba Real Trio play at the Royal Court where hans was "Angel"?
Today's trivia question- Which other Hans co-star was seriously considered for the role of Elizabeth1 in "The Virgin Queen"?

Think I read somewhere that Clare Danes was considered for VQ Elizabeth, but can't be sure really...

You're right!
That's the answer, though after all this time I can't remeber where I read it either

Hi everyone, I'm back! Somewhat exhausted after being on the road for twenty one hours and then getting four hours sleep. Plus, I broke my glasses and my spare pair are really old prescription so the computer is a bit of a challenge. But how nice to get back to high speed broadband, not to mention a keyboard that is clean and doesn't bump me into Japanese mode every time I try to use an apostrophe.
ANYWAY to the trivia - noticed Ludovico EInaudi's "Love is a Mystery" on Singapore Airlines' Light Classic music selection on my flight home. Yes, it's from the "Doctor Zhivago" soundtrack, though they didn't say that on their commentary. Thought it was sort of cool trivia for you.

It's great you're back Virgil!  Cool for "Love is a mystery". I love this soundtrack. I wish they would add it to their selections in French radios. |

A bit of media studies/reading comprehension exercise for y'all. From Na h-Eileanan Siar, a website about the Hebrides Hans Matheson, played the title role in Granada's £8.5m serialisation of Boris Pasternak's novel, Doctor Zhivago,for which he won a golden globe and bafta; now stacking shelves in Somerfield. Don't believe everything you read on the internet, folks. |

Ah... This sentence taken from its context seemed to be written by "Jane000". Reading more makes sure that it's a parody of Wikipedia.
The game you started this thread with is great - no ideas to continue?

Ah ha - too easy. I got 100% of course. Zita, the original concept didn't really take off. I'd be happy to continue if people were interested - I can't remember what happened to Silly Trivia Thread 1. Must have been on one of the former boards. So here's one that was probably in that earlier thread: Who appeared in small roles in both Tube Tales and Les Miserables? (Gg you're not allowed to answer  ) |

There should be a quiz edited for "advanced fans"!  Answering your question, Virg: Googling allowed? |
