6 degrees - a game

[scarredsoul]

I have this horrible tendency to play 6 degrees of -- in my head when I'm trying to sleep and i figured I'd start a rousing game here....you know how it works:

Rules:

To find the six degrees of separation, you need two pairs....anyone will do. (I find you have to make sure if works first before saying anything, otherwise it'll go on for a while)

I don't recommend trying to fit an actor to a musician, it makes life really hard.

It doesn't have to be Hans, that's just who I started with.

There has to be at least 5 degrees, sometimes 6 isn't possible. But if it's over in two, you've got the wrong pairing.

So...let's play:


Find the 6 degrees of separation between:

Hans and Bill Nighy (not Still Crazy)

Makes it a bit harder huh? I did this in my head and I came up with the answer.

I'll warn you now, it's a bit of a trick question and not as easy as you might think. My girlfriend couldn't figure it out until I told her

I don 't understand at all ..

Hans - Keira Knightley - Bill Nighy X 2 (Love Actually and Pirates of The Caribbean)

People like Bill Nighy have such long resumes, you can probably find a link to everyone! It used to be Six Degrees of kevin Bacon, bit with IMDb, it's too easy to find the answers; it was more challenging if you had to remember who was in various movies.

Last time this game was doe here, someone had answers that were just too obscure - people no-one (else) has heard of.

Hans - Kelly Macdonald - Bill Nighy (3 times)

How is one supposed to find at least five degrees, when the connection is so obvious?

[scarredsoul]

Good connections but not the one I had in mind.

Noooooo!! It's amazing!! I'm always playing this game, mentally, also! (Because when I proposed to play with some friends, they didn't like it...) I usually play while I'm trying to sleep or when I'm travelling at the bus...

Can I propose a pair? Please, please, please!!! ;D
