Test your knowledge of the 50's-80's

[Narnia]

I need your help in in testing the degree of difficulty/stupidity of a quiz I'm intending using at a family get together. I obtained all the questions from a board game I never used. It's easy to play(my version of it will be anyway). Pick a decade (from above) and any number from 111 to 666. The initial question is worth 5 points but additional clues reduce it's value by 1. So who is first? I have my questions ready but will take only one at a time.Any wrong answer and I will go on to the next clue. I may even keep the score......

[Narnia]

Anyone can answer once I ask the question, whoever it may have come from.

[Narnia]

Admittedly this is for the more mature forumite.

For 5 points complete this:

[Loz]

That's 3 answers Loz, all wrong according to my book.

Ooops. Sorry. It always helps if I read the rules first. Are the number of dashes in your question significant?

No they're not.

[Narnia]

Fraid not. The 1 point score is more of a statement:

Have you ever worn a piece of clothing that showed everything?

[PeckhamRose]

shorts

Edited for narnia's above question: shorts with holes in embarrassing places?

[Narnia]

I'll put this one out of it misery.

The answer was:
