Pub quiz questions 2

[mickle]

What I really wanted to create was a repository of good questions (and answers) for when I/we next get asked to organise a quiz. They dont need to be car related btw.

I suggest post a question then wait for a response, right or wrong, before providing the answer.

Thusly;

(Q1) What colour is a polar bears skin?

Andy and Ben went to India.

Where did they stay?
What did they drive?
What's their favourite soft drink?
What's the name of Andy's girlfriend?
Name their two favourite dances.
What's Ben's favourite drink?

Please note I have made this even more difficult than it could be, but people on here are so fiendishly clever. If it proves too difficult - unlikely I would have thought - I will provide a few clues.

 

[Elmer Fudd]

What was Brain's (from Thunderbirds) real name?

Hiram K Hackenbacker was an alias, but nobody ever knew his real name as it was 'Top Secret'.

 

[Graham O]

Hiram K Hackenbacker was an alias, but nobody ever knew his real name as it was 'Top Secret'.

I thought his initial was J. And as for it being an alias, oh, well, I suppose I'm in the wrong again. I'll get back in my box.

 

[Speck]

what was Britains first national park?

The Peak National Park

 

[Arch]

Let's turn this round:

When I was on University Challenge, I answered 4 'starters for 10'. The answers were Basil Brush, Polenta, Sciatica and Neap. What were the questions...?

The hair of a polar bear is transparent. (And hollow/tubular)

OK I'm biting. So if it's skin is black and it's hair is transparent, why do they look white/ yellow?
