Solutions

1:A - Yes, of course it is Anthony Daniels, whose droid double-act with R2-D2 has been one of the most enjoyable constants throughout the whole series of Star Wars movies., 2:C - Cushing played Grand Moff Tarkin, as well as many roles in Hammer Horror movies, and even a turn as Doctor Who at cinemas in the 1960s. It has been announced that a blue plaque in his honour will be unveiled in July at his former home in Croydon. , 3:B - Yes, this is Kylo Ren's three-pronged lightsaber. You'll do yourself a nasty injury with that if you aren't careful., 4:C - It's a Tauntaun. Thanks to the sequence in The Empire Strikes Back where Han Solo slices one open, we know that they are very, very smelly inside., 5:C - This blue alien was the leader of the Max Rebo band in Jabba's palace, of which Sy Snootles, Ak-rev, and Rappertunie are also members., 6:A - It's the Porgs. Either fantastic comic relief aimed at children during tense action scenes, or really annoying all the way through the film, depending on your point of view. They were, it seems, added into The Last Jedi as it was easier to CGI the puffins on location in Skellig Michael into the porg creatures than to remove them entirely., 7:C - In a very over-zealous move worthy of Palpatine himself, Disney put out a tweet that seemed to imply that if you used the hashtag, they owned the copyright and were allowed to use your tweet in any marketing material they saw fi, 8:B - Darth Maul appeared as the villain in The Phantom Menace, played by Ray Park on screen but voiced by Peter Serafinowicz. For all three lines that he had in the movie., 9:D - Unkar Plutt is the dealer who purchases scavenged items from Rey early on in The Force Awakens., 10:B - His designated number was FN-2187, leading to him gaining the nickname 'Finn'., 11:D - Christie, better known perhaps for portraying Brienne of Tarth in Game of Thrones, plays Captain Phasma, 12:D - Whitaker played Saw Gerrera, a rebel leader willing to use dubious methods to achieve his aims. He had rescued Rogue One's main character, Jyn Erso, when she was a child., 13:B - Mas Amedda was the vice chair of the galactic senate, who appeared in The Phantom Menace alongside Terence Stamp in the role of Chancellor Finis Valorum., 14:A - If you peer closely enough you can see it is a rather low resolution Obi-Wan Kenobi, as portrayed by Ewan Macgregor in Attack of the Clones., 15:B - Also known as Hammerhead, for obvious reasons, he was one of many alien costumes and puppets designed for the wretched hive of scum and villainy that is Mos Eisley Spaceport., 16:C - It's Rey, played on screen by Daisy Ridley, 17:D - It's Greedo. W. Wald was Anakin's childhood friend on Tatooine. Jakoli and Onaconda Farr are other examples of the Rodian species who have appeared in Star Wars spin-offs. And Han shot first, for sure. , 18:C - Yes, despite lots of angry fans on the internet getting upset about everything to do with the Star Wars franchise these days - including this quiz probably - The Rise of Skywalker still out-performed most Star Wars movies at the box office, raking in more than $1bn worldwide, 19:A - These helmets are worn by the imperial biker scouts on the Forest Moon of Endor in Return of the Jedi., 20:B - According to the definitive online Star Wars resource and best named website on the internet Wookieepedia, he is "a Kowakian monkey-lizard who worked as a jester" in Jabba's palace., 21:A - It's the eye of the prop used to film the scene in the trash compactor in the original movie. The species are apparently known as dianoga., 22:A - IG-88 appears briefly in the Empire Strikes Back, and like most fleeting appearances in the movies, has developed an extensive back story over the years since the movie across novels and comics., 23:B - Yes Mustafar was the setting. Anakin, as Lord Vader, later built a fortress on the planet, because obviously you'd love to be constantly reminded of where your mentor and teacher cut off your arms and legs , 24:A - Don't worry, The Child™️, you'll always be "Baby Yoda" to us
