All the details you need to join our third lockdown Zoom quiz.
Normally at this time of year we’d be inviting you to the Tufnell Park Film Club Autumn Film Quiz at The Lord Palmerston. Sadly, it looks like it’ll be a while before we’ll be doing that again, but! after the ROARING (ahem - Ed) success of our first Zoom quiz back in May we thought we’d give it another go.
Important stuff
The quiz will take place on Sunday 25 October at 7.30pm (UK time). It’s entirely FREE to join and anyone, anywhere in the world is welcome to take part - whether you’re a fully paid-up film club member or just an interested bod.
If you’d like to participate, please either reply to one of our newsletters or email us here by lunchtime on Friday 23 October. We will then send you a link and password to join the Zoom call. If you would like to take part remotely as a team with family/friends/casual acquaintances/ex-lovers/film nerd ringers/etc please also let us know who your teammates are so we put you together in a Zoom ‘breakout room’.
What was that about teams? Also: breakout rooms??!! What gives?
That’s right. We’re going to be using Zoom breakout rooms, so if you want to take part as team you’ll be able to chat away with your team mates in order to confer on those all important answers.
I see. But do I have to be in a team?
Of course not! Playing solo is absolutely fine. We’re also happy to create some ad hoc teams on the night if you want to play with others.
Will there be prizes?
Last time we managed to drop off a jar of Barry Norman’s Pickled Onions on the winners’ doorstep. If the victors live locally we’ll try to do the same again.
Call that a prize???
Listen, pal, this is C19 Brexit Britain 2020. Ya getcha kicks where ya can.
I see. One more question…
Questions and answers for our lockdown quiz.
Lockdown started a few weeks before we'd scheduled our Spring Quiz at The Lord Palmerston, so given we’d written at least a few of the questions already we’re attempting to resurrect it via the ubiquitous power of Zoom.
Important stuff
The quiz will take place on Sunday 17 May at 7.30pm (UK time). Anyone, anywhere in the world is welcome to join. If you’d like to take part, please either reply to one of our newsletters or email us here by lunchtime on Sunday 17 May. We will then send you a link and password to join the Zoom call.
Can I have an answer sheet?
Of course! Here’s a PDF you can download and print (obvs. there will be no swapping of papers so you can just scribble on any bit of scrap paper).
Can I be in a team?
There is no need to form a team to take part. There will be no prizes. This is just for fun. But if you want to be part of a team we suggest you use a Whatsapp group or some other form of communication to confer with your fellow teammates locked-down elsewhere.
Will there be prizes?
No. We just said that.
Oh. Definitely no Barry Norman Pickled Onions booby prizes, then?
OK. Perhaps if the winner lives within walking distance of Tufnell Park we can deposit a jar on their doorstep.
Will it be fun?
Define “fun”.
Will there be questions about Back to the Future and Nicolas Cage?
We couldn’t possibly say…
Any questions?
