20 out of 20 at 51.....I have no life. My 23 year old daughter did it with me and got 9. Not bad for a kid. I guessed at the Peter Pan one. I was thinking Sandy Duncan, but that was the stage play version.

Great test

19 of 20 -- and I'm old

But -- Dylan is wrong -- I got it right, but I didn't think that it was him.

Did not get the one 'oh my'. What's the reference for that (please) ?

Just had my 14 yo granddaughter try, and she didn't get even one right. Then she told me I was older than dirt, smiled, and left the room.........

Thanks Bill..............
