Pick the Celebrity 12 - Which actress appeared in the 2000 movie "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" as the Surprised Who?
The correct answer is 'Bryce Dallas Howard'
It was hard to determine who was who (no pun intended) in the costumes. I thought this was a nice role for her as she was just starting her acting career. She was born on March 2, 1981 in Dallas, Texas. Her parents are Ron and Cheryl Howard. Bryce Howard appeared in "Apollo 13" (1995) in an uncredited role. She also appeared in the 2005 movie "Manderlay". Jones was Hugh Who in the movie "How the Grinch Stole Christmas". Schellhardt and Lloyd appeared in the movie "Apollo 13".

"It's Christmastime; there's no need to be afraid
At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime"
Which band sang this song?
The correct answer is 'Band Aid'
Written by Bob Geldof with profits to aid famine victims in Ethiopia, the song reached #1 in the U.K., and #13 on the U.S. charts in 1985. The artists who participated included Paul Young, Sting, Simon LeBon, Culture Club, Kool & the Gang and Bono.
Christmas Question 6
'M*A*S*H' - 'Dear Dad' - Father Mulcahy is also introduced to Hawkeye's dad in this episode. When Hawkeye compliments the good Father on his Christmas tree, by what nickname does he call the Padre?
The correct answer is 'Red'
In the movie and book versions of 'M*A*S*H', Father Mulcahy's nickname is 'Dago Red', referencing the color of his hair. This is the only example of the nickname 'Red' being used for Father Mulcahy in the TV version. I guess it didn't make sense calling Mulcahy 'Red' when he didn't have red hair.
