Don’t be a ding dong because clangers will get you gonged out of this quiz

Key points

  • Quizmaster John James Maloney has put together a trivia quiz built around bells. The questions range from a campground run by the Kyogle Fishing Club to the 1940 novel For Whom the Bell Tolls.
  • Other questions cover the 1946 film It's a Wonderful Life, ship's bells, the honeyeater known as the bellbird, and the whistling kite.
  • The quiz also explains the origin of the phrase pipe down, which came from a bosun's whistle used to dismiss crew members from a watch.
