QUIZ: INITIAL MUSICALS

Exhausted by yesterday's eating-drinking-present-opening-TV-watching marathon?

Time to chill out while engaging in a little brain-cell-stimulation!

A BOXING DAY (that's the Day-After-Christmas-Day for my American cousins) QUIZ on the theme of FILM MUSICALS.

Below are the titles of sixty musical films represented by their initial letters, together with the initials of one of the stars.

So, for example, the film on the left might be F-SS (42S would be too easy!) / RK (for Ruby Keeler).

I have also included one or two picture clues – just to help get you started!

Sheila (above) has come up with this additional challenge for those of you who have already completed the original quiz. After consultation, however, I have to advise you that 3. ought to read: H! / LMK.

Enjoy!
