It's trivia o'clock!

Yesterday we asked: "The first Muppets movie to be made after the death of creator Jim Henson was based on which Dickens novella?"

 

Perhaps an easier one, but it is the end of the week. The answer, of course, is A Christmas Carol.

Muppets Christmas Carol is the greatest Christmas movie of all time and we will not be taking any questions on this.

No trivia question today as its the weekend, but we'll be back on Monday. 

 

Whatever your plans today, and this weekend, have a good one.
