Those wonderful Christmas quiz elves at Ifour have made us a quiz for isolation
One of those look at the picture clues and guess the Comedy show
Try to keep spoilers off here for as long as possible, but I ma looking forward to the cryptic clues that you all normally manage
Cheers! Have had a quick go and got 22. Will look again tomorrow 🙂
Hmmm.... am on 31, but think I’m going to quit now
There’s a couple I’m sure I know, but can’t seem to get the answer right
A lot of them the clue doesn’t relate to the title of the show, but to something in an episode once
So if you’ve never watched the show, or don’t remember that 1 joke you won’t get it
Typical single track. 1st post asks for no spoilers. 2nd post follows with an immediate spoiler.
Got to 41, but really struggling now.
37 here but ground to a halt now. Like Wukfit there's a couple that I can't seem to get though I'm sure I'm on the right track.
Up to 34 now...
Things I don't get, but which are obviously clues:
Gun / broom
the backpack with the face
my little pony & a mini
pink bunny ears
the teddy (& sweater) on the sofa
the pope in the window
the rug
the mug with Martin written on it...
I don’t think the mini and the pony go together (i have an answer for the pony but not the mini)
The gun/broom is a stupid clue, but I have the answer
Don’t have answers to the others you mention
EDIT: I do have the teddy actually, but it’s one of those that has nothing to do with the title of the show
got the pony and the car now - yup - separate things
Edit: and the broom 🙂
37...
44
stuck on the rug, the bag/puppet, the cat/dog which means I'm missing even the clues!
cat / dog are separate clues ( I have the cat, not the dog).
dog is a well known American sitcom
I'm at 43.
Missing :
Rug
pope in window
beware of the...
newspaper rack in corner
cat with bread either side (unless it is linked to the shadows behind)
pink bunny ears
martin's mug
purple backpack
(one of those isn't a clue)
swap you the mug one for the cat sandwich? ;D
shadows are a different clue, look closely at the figures, who do they remind you of? (nothing to do with being shadows)
doing quite well for me on these things at 40 but hit a wall. Not sure if I can identify all of the remaining clues
Rolled Rug
cushion
dog
Pizza box with surround soundy sticker (got the 3 surrounding answers)
purple rucksack with face
and a quite well hidden one which I wont mention just in case people havn't spotted it
shadow's in the kitchen
and also struggling with the parrot
Not sure if the washing up in the kitchen is a clue or the tin or container on the counter in the kitchen.
close to giving up but still plugging away.
Got a few other similar things through work too.
beware of the…
character in the show, a bit handy
Pope in the window is a recent show - think Ireland.
I was convinced the trap door was "the trap door" cartoon for ages.. instead 4 different clues!
look at the parrots ****, what is it?
The dogs is a (proper dog) character from an american sitcom, (thanks Wardee, I recognised him with your prompt)
the teddy (& it's not a sweater) on the sofa.. you more often see the character portrayed in cartoon version of the show with the bear, than the original live action.
Can't get these ones. At 36 so not too bad.
Cracked egg
Mug with Martin
Sword and single snake
Parrot
Cushion
Rug
Pony
Mini
Face in curtain (not the window)
Purple monster
Pizza box
Thread
Fire extinguisher (related to sign above?)
Washing up
I'm about halfway through which isn't bad on a small phone. However, quite a few I've got but not from the clues I thought they were.
cheers jimdubleyou. - had tried that but my spelling must have been off.
z1ppy - I have the shadows just wasn't sure If the cat was related. I don't have the mug or cat.
wobbliscott I think you may be short of more answers in the area of the pizza box. Should be 2 on the box itself. + 1 on the adjacent beverage + 2 on the pile of carbohydrate squares in front.
Look at the features of the parrot.
cheers jimdubleyou. – had tried that but my spelling must have been off.
Punctuation is also important.
Look at the features of the parrot.
That's like scratching an itch in my brain. Thank you.
48 just the cat sarnie and purple bag person to go, assuming the rug is nothing
can't get:
cat
broom/gun
monster
pink ears
cotton reel
rug
cushion?
washing up?
Martin!!
magazine rack?
suroundy soundy
The purple monster/backpack is a netflix show. I used up my clue for the day on that one...
47...
Missing (I think):
Teddy (thanks for the clue, I sort of remember what you're talking about but still not getting it)
Cushion / pink ears
Rug
the rug, washing up and magazine rack are back ground scenery, if the cat and bag are my two last clues to get.
and a colleagues lording it up, with the cat answer
I've got all 50. I reckon that was the easiest one yet.
Broom/gun doesn't need the whole of the gun, just a part.
Similar with the parrot
of the ifour quiz's? Yes.. it must have been thrown together quickly, as I checked their site a day or two before & they only seem to do the xma quiz
Broom/gun doesn’t need the whole of the gun, just a part.
ffs how did I miss that
z1ppy - yes the ifour quizzes. I've spent days on and off completing the others in the past - this one took less than an hour.
yeah, it a xmas office event for us
Hows about a clue for the fricken bag thing? #
(I'm more than happy to trade ;P)
Hows about a clue for the fricken bag thing? #
there's a clue up there... (netflix).
extra clue
edit: howtf do you do spoiler tags in this editor?
Gun / broom belonged to Trigger
Hows about a clue for the fricken bag thing?
The paper bag? It has two answers
ahaaa the purple bag monster thing... as I don't have netflix, I'd have never gotten that one. I have no idea what the reference even means but cheers it was annoying me
... found a picture of the main character with the bag.
FFS. Finally got the bag. - Had been including "the" in the title by mistake.
Bag belongs to a very robust individual.
45 47 and definitely stuck now!
The cat is bugging me.
The paper bag? It has two answers
Ah, thank you sir... 49/50
the teddy (& it’s not a sweater) on the sofa.. you more often see the character portrayed in cartoon version of the show with the bear, than the original live action.
boom 50/50
Cat Sandwich is a three letter answer
trouble is, as the the last episode was in 1990, even I didn't remember he (wanted to) eat cats

🙂
The fire extiguisher - I thought it was related to the Mini, but it seems not ??
The fire extiguisher
IT is from an episode of the show
The FIRE! makes sense now.
This thread isn’t exactly crowded with answers
Don't Panic...
I can only assume it's a spelling issue, as it must be what I think it is!

Don’t Panic…I can only assume it’s a spelling issue, as it must be what I think it is!
Assuming you've got the answer right it works both with and without the apostrophe
Ah! It was something else with an apostrophe in it!
My original thought would have put a Dent in my score!
I can only assume it’s a spelling issue, as it must be what I think it is!
I tried a few spelling variations before realizing it was not the one I thought it was
Yes, I tried so many variations of the wrong answer before I realised

Stupid boy!
Stupid boy!
you're going to make me a Paranoid Android if you call me names
edit too slow - internet lagging a bit here
🙂
I'm on 42 but more like 32 as I've guessed some names or had to Google the character for the show name as it was so long ago...
Pillow, parrot, pink ears, rear end and egg are bugging me as they all look familiar but just can't place them.
egg
Nanoo.
pink ears,
Adult Swim
Thanks
Rear end.
What is it, what's its condition and how did it get there?
Still on 38.
Martin's mug
Cotton reel
Tidy cushion
Rolled run
Trap door
All still evade me.
egg - I almost slapped myself when I eventually realised what it was, Nanu nanu (can't get much more blatant than that).
Martin’s mug - Teeeeaaaaaa Martin!
Cotton reel - emergency service
Tidy cushion - Or Bang Tidy, as Nessa might say
Rolled run - if that should say rug, it isn't a clue
Trap door - Thing is, its quite a Handy clue
Whilst this is kind of fun, I got to about 25 with no bother, then a couple more where they were on the tip of my tongue and I had to do some research.
The rest I wouldn't have had a clue. Even when I know the answer from this thread I don't 'get' the reference! Some of these programs I've never heard of.
On 42 now with some help and inspiration from this thread. Not sure I can spot most of the remaining 8.
I've got the face looking in from the window to be sure...but is the bishop like doll on the window sill a separate clue or the same as the face?
Also around the pizza box got 3 of the clues...the pile of square carbs, the bottle of beer and potato based snack and the picture with the bird on the pizza lid...but assume there is a clue linked to the 'surroundy soundy' sticker and a clue linked to the actual pizza slice?
still struggling with the dog, shadowy figures and the parrot despite apparently obvious help on this thread...maybe I'm just not getting them as i'm not familiar with the shows themselves.
Still working on the curtain face one but think I've still yet to identify 2 or 3 clues.
Got the donkey...the clue didn't help, but thanks for trying.
5 left...
I'm not even sure where my last two clues are.
Is 'Surroundy Soundy TV' sticker one of them, and is the stuff on the kitchen worktop a clue?
but is the bishop like doll on the window sill a separate clue or the same as the face?
Yes, separate. Recent sitcom.
still struggling with the dog, shadowy figures and the parrot despite apparently obvious help on this thread
Look at the parrot and describe its features to yourself. What's unusual about it?
Shadowy figures, well the one of the left has a distinctive profile. He's already appeared in one of the series whose clues you've got.
Dog - it's a toughy if you don't know the series. But you've already got the earlier US series which involved the same character.
Is ‘Surroundy Soundy TV’ sticker one of them - YES. Answer is a play on an Orson Welles film title
and is the stuff on the kitchen worktop a clue? - NO
How did I miss the cotton reel? "Your cock-up; my arse" is 9ne of my favourite lines from a comedy.
The mug, I heard "hello Martin" 8n my head. I must be spelling it poorly.
Nope, entirely different Martin. The one I was thinking if was much funnier
Parrot, cushion, pink ears and parrot...all familiar but completely unknown in my head! Think 45 is my limit and that was with research as well!
47
Googled the pink ears and martin
Got a couple just by assuming they would be there somewhere, like the one above No No No because I never noticed the clue
Need: Surroundy soundy
But not sure where to look for the last 2. Are these clues: The cushion on the sofa? the clothes on the sofa?
There are lots of clues for the parrot above, any more will give it away
Need: Surroundy soundy
But not sure where to look for the last 2. Are these clues: The cushion on the sofa? the clothes on the sofa?
Surroundy sound - I gave a clue up there ^^^^^. Its set in Birmingham
Cushion - not a clue
Clothes - the clue is the teddy
Surroundy sound – I gave a clue up there ^^^^^. Its set in Birmingham
THANK YOU!!! so obvious really.
Dog – it’s a toughy if you don’t know the series. But you’ve already got the earlier US series which involved the same character.
THANK YOU AGAIN!!! didn't know the series that well though aware of it but the link to the earlier show was enough to connect the dots.
There are lots of clues for the parrot above, any more will give it away
Got it!! what a t*at I am!!
I'm missing the clues...however also entirely possible I didn't regularly watch whatever it is.
I start by liking these things then hate them as I can't complete them...starting to like it again even though I'm not going to complete it - the shows I have found are reminding me of some great shows from earlier times.
are the shadows two separate clues?
Nope.
Just finished with an answer I'd tried to enter about five times before...which the quiz folk spelled wrong.
Stuck on 45.
Still can't get the trap door.
Pink ears
Purple monster face thing.
Can't even see what other clues I'm missing.
stuck on 42. i got to that without any help but browsing through this thread i think ive got all the ones discussed? cant even see where the remaining clues might be?
but i have lost half my image when i click the link!?
are the shadows two separate clues?
Nope, and the fact that their shadows has nothing to do with their show either, looks at the figures and try and recognise the famous comedians (double act in this case, from an earlier show already in the quiz)
Still can’t get the trap door
The holes not a clue, just the lid with a 'handy' phrase (the first mans family?)
Pink ears
Obvious if you've seen the cartoon, other wise as above it a product of adult swim and had a cross over episode with archer (as the same voice actor is used in both - trivia, rather than a clue)
Purple monster face thing.
A netflicks series, I'd never heard of before, so can't give you a better clue
I saved this for Christmas, if anyone remembers, what are the cat sandwich and the parrot!
🤦🏻♂️
got the parrot, so obvious.
And the little porcelain pope on the windowsill and then I'm done
