Mark Ryan makes a first class quiz master for the opening night quiz. Quiz team "Robin Hood and His Merry Women" (with one behind the camera) otherwise known as the "bemused ones" by Mark Ryan since we didn't have answers to all the questions. Although amazed at what we managed to recall and scoring 44.5 out of 60 we came in 7th and I think there were only 8 teams!
Saturday 3rd May 2008
Mark Ryan, Annabelle Lee & Richard Carpenter were excellent guests, generously giving their time to talk to fans and answer questions in two panels.
