OK then another question to keep this topic going!

What is, or was, a drumlin?

Hint: This was in my geography exam today and I answered it with about five A4 lines of text. laugh.gif thumbsup.gif
tiddlyjen
Drumlin; Smooth, streamlined hill composed of till. Long axis oriented in direction of ice movement: Blunt nose points upstream, and gentler slope tails off downstream. In height drumlins range from 8 to 60 m, with average somewhat less than 30 m. Most drumlins are between 0.5 and 1 km in length, the length commonly several times width. Diagnostic characteristics are shape and composition of unstratified glacial drift, in contrast to kames, or stratified glacial drift and random shapes.

cool.gif nope. the Sydney Funnel Web spider is the most poisonous spider. a daddy longlegs spider could only kill a really little kid if the kid was to eat it wink2.gif
the answer is: the poison arrow frog thumbsup.gif cool.gif

since this is trivia, daddy longleg isnt actually a spider, its more closely related to scorpions. tongue.gif

As for the answer, I have no scooby. I've searched through different pages of trivia for the film and even tried to search for a script for it, to no avail. Unless you've seen it (or have it on VHS/DVD at your disposal) this question is unanswerable!! huh.gif

Nice one Tendo! thumbsup.gif laugh.gif

They locked her in a room and bricked up the door, or something similar.
