Think You Know the 70's? Take the 2 minute test!

July 6th 2007 21:43
For a little weekend fun – thought I would put together a quick quiz for all those who think they know their 60’s and 70’s movie, TV and music trivia.

The answers are at the bottom of the post – but no peeking.

Would love to hear whether you think this is worth a regular weekend post and how you get on.


Good luck!

Questions:

1) In the television series Hogan’s Heroes – what is Col. Hogan’s Christian name?

2) From which Donna Summer hit do the following lines belong?

Sittin' here eatin' my heart out no reason
won't spend another night on my own
I dialed about hundred numbers baby
I'm bound to find somebody home

3) Name three (3) of the five (5) James Bond Movies made in the 1970’s

4) Who played the role of Maynard G. Crebbs in the 60’s television series – The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis?

5) Which group was Reelin In the Years back in 1972?

6) In which city is the TV series Hills Street Blues supposedly set.

7) In 1977 – David Soul (from Starsky and Hutch Fame) had a number 1 US hit with this song.

8) Which 2 Dicks played the role of Darrin Stephens in the 60s TV series – Bewitched.

9) What is the name of the T-Birds rival gang in the movie Grease?

10) In the 1960/1970s series Mayberry R.F.D – what did the R.F.D stand for?

Thanks for having a little fun.
