Look Who's Talking was the surprise hit of 1989: a romantic comedy in which the audience hears everything a baby is thinking, from the womb onwards. John Travolta and Kirstie Alley play the unlikely couple at its centre, and the film was popular enough to bring two sequels and a television spin-off. This quiz covers the whole series. There are questions on the plot of all three films, the stars behind the famous voice-overs, the supporting cast and how the films were made, along with a few on the box office and awards. Most are pitched at anyone who has seen the first film; a handful are for fans who know the sequels and the stories from the set. It suits a movie night, an 80s or 90s party, or anyone who grew up watching these films on video. Every answer comes with a short explanation, so you can play straight through on your phone or print the questions for a group.
