I would've scored 6 . . .
I'm enjoying these quizzes, they must take some work to put together though! Thank you.
Finding the quotes is quite easy, but finding the correct attribution has so far proven not so easy. But I've had enjoyable times in rabbit holes!
Thanks for playing. All will be revealed tomorrow.
You scored a very commendable 8 points.

@spunkycumfun - Can I redeem the points for anything exciting?? 😏 😈
@Just2chat2 I take it you're not too impressed with the prize!
@spunkycumfun - ROFLMAO!!! 😂🤣😂🤣 That depends on what I can redeem them for!!
….maybe you could offer personal redemption next time I’m in the UK….?
@Just2chat2 I can offer personal redemption as well as award top prizes!
Spock (1) should have invited E.T. (8) onto the starship Enterprise so he could heal the crew if they got harmed by Khan. 😎 (10) And I feel sorry for the women who were kissed by the orange faced guy. Must have felt like they were kissing a slug. 🤮 (9) A great song by Elton John to Marilyn Monroe and Princess Diana. 🎼
I can't fathom Donald Trump's charm ... oh, it's his fat wallet!
