It's only simple IF you know the answers! :naughty:

Good attempt there, you managed to get 5 out of 10 there & I'll give you one fifth of a point for number 4 as you placed Virgil corectly, BUT nor the other four, 5 & one fifth out of ten for you!

1. The only reference to a dateline in 'Thunderbirds' is a calendar in the final episode, "Give Or Take A Million" which clearly states 2026.
2. Pacific Ocean.
3. Aloysius Parker.
4. Scott, John, Virgil, Gordon, Alan.
5.
6. Alan
7. Skyship One.
8.
9.
10. Born August 15th, 1999.

Is agent 47 that hillbilly that knew Jeff Tracy - he was in an episode in which he used his super-charged truck to overtake a sports car?

BTW, did you know that Gordon Tracy used to work for WASP - the World Aquanaut Security Patrol - which was the organisation around which Stingray was based?

From one of Daves sites:

But Gordon is an important member of International Rescue who can switch from light hearted pranks to committed responsibility in an instant. Gordon has a particular affinity with water, winning the gold medal at the 2020 Olympics for the butterfly stroke and joining the World Aquanaut Security Patrol in 2023. His time with WASP saw him spent a year underwater in a bathyscape but shortly before International Rescue was formed he survived an enormous hydrofoil accident, which capsized at 400 knots. He returned from hospital four months later with a new-found respect for the sea, but with his sense of humour still intact.

Okay Dave , for your second attempt at the quiz, you scored 5 out of 10 again & you can have as many attempts at it as you want too. :rolly2:

As for Dark you scored 8 out of 10! :rolly2:

As for your informatiom Techno, I already knew about it.
:blpaw:

DarkCity545 · 19th May 2002, 02:05 AM

Number 8 I did not know, what other one was wrong?

Bayleaf48 · 20th May 2002, 07:47 AM

You got the order of the Tracy brothers wrong, but to be fair you did manage to place 3 of them in the correct order, so for that you get three fifths for that question, so your final score is 8 & three fifths out of ten, sorry. :rolly2: :blush:
