The Year in Question

This pub quiz handout round is split into three main sections, all themed around the same year. 

The first section features photos of five famous people who died in this year, the second features five taglines used to promote films released in this year, and the third features lyrics from songs that were hit singles in this year. The aim is to name the five people, five films and five songs, and finally name the year, with five points awarded for getting this exactly right, four points for being one year out and so on.

It is recommended that this round is used as a handout round. You can find more information on handout rounds and our recommended use for them in quizzes on our handout rounds page.

Please note that this handout round also appears in Weekly Quiz 726.
