Quizballs accepts no liability for any arguments, lost bets, or otherwise unfortunate consequences arising from any errors contained in these quizzes although quite a lot of effort is made to ensure that questions are clear and answers are correct. Please notify us of any errors, or questions or answers requiring clarification.

These quizzes are free to use in pub quizzes, trivia quizzes, organisational events and team-building, but are not to be sold or published, which includes not posting them on other websites, thank you.

Below are the quiz answers. Here are the quiz questions without answers.

Please note: question 20 was replaced (16 Mar 2007) due to the difficulty in providing a correct unequivocal answer to: What causes Lily Tomlin to shrink in the 1981 film The Incredible Shrinking Woman? The answer was incompletely stated in this quiz as 'perfume', but the full correct answer (various lifestyle and household chemicals and additives) is not well-suited to a quiz. (Thanks Razzle)
