Stupidly hard work quiz (help!)

If anyone remembers previous years my work sets a stupidly hard quiz for us to have a go at every Christmas. This year's is no different....

I've managed to complete the first 8 puzzles myself but now I'm stuck Xmas Sad Very frustrating as I've got the gist of the puzzles but can't figure out what the answer is!

Here's the first one and here's my answers. If anyone can figure out the final answer (two words 5,7) I'd be ever so grateful 😊

Title of this one is "Forget Orpheus" so maybe something to do with music?

Blimey OP they do keep you on your toes don't they

Haven't the FOGGIEST about this. Some groups are there e.g. teams. Are they the same team - can't see in the pic?

ApocalypseNowt · 08/12/2021 13:06

Close ups of the teams photos .

I'm stumped on this one too. I'm going to concentrate on the images I definitely know and see if I can work it out from there.

Have stoopid meetings this afternoon which is rude. Be back as & when I can!

ApocalypseNowt · 08/12/2021 13:12

I don't think this one will be as easy as the last 😂

SoupDragon · 08/12/2021 13:14

YTH is Seven of Nine from Star Trek Voyager.

Also, he forgot he wasn't meant to look back when he rescued Eurydice from the underworld. Not that that helps one bit.

Sparticle · 08/12/2021 13:19

RTH is Mark Bright

ApocalypseNowt · 08/12/2021 13:20

Black and white photo is Al Capone. Gladiator is Wolf. Little girl is from the lion, the witch & the wardrobe i think. Next to that is Will Smith & Jada Pinkett. Tom Cruise as Maverick last.

The 3 letters on each photo are annoying me though!!!

OP posts:
Sparticle · 08/12/2021 13:20

So if all the three letter groups are reordered into a sentence, the names/words from the photos should form a phrase?

SSOYS · 08/12/2021 13:20

OTH is Al Capone

Sparticle · 08/12/2021 13:21

Could you write out all the three letter groups please?

minou123 · 08/12/2021 13:21

Could the pictures be clues fir bands/singers.

For example
The Smiths (Will and Jade Smith)
The Monkees (picture of the monkeys)

Vat not sure how the 3 letters fit in.

Although, I haven't done very good with these quizzes, so I suspect I'm wrong Blush

ApocalypseNowt · 08/12/2021 13:21

Is that Sting above Tom Cruise?

@ApocalypseNowt

I thought so.

Sparticle · 08/12/2021 13:23

AME is Michael Collins (the 'forgotten Apollo 1 astronaut' apparently)

ApocalypseNowt · 08/12/2021 13:25

Two men to the left of the fighter plane photo....one on the left is Keanu Reeves I think. Not sure who the other guy is but looks familiar.

riotlady · 08/12/2021 13:26
