"Return of the Quiz thing."

Hello, Its back again after a 5 month break. The so called rules are the same: anyone can set a question so long as they check to see if anyone has got the right answer.
Mystique is the reigning champ, she answered at least twice as many questions correctly as the nearest placed person.
If this gets going again then I'll keep a running score sheet.


1. What was sister sledge's only UK no.1?
2. Who was the voice of donkey in Shrek?
3. Who played the vampire Deacon Frost in the film Blade?
4. Who directed star wars episode 1?
5. "The Gentlemen" featured in which episode of Buffy the vampire slayer?

those 5 will do from me from now.

1 was answered already, 2 correct and 3 correct 5 answered already too.
Gary barlow got 2 number 1s with his 2 debut solo singles, I think he's more into the background side of the music things now.
sadly I can't remember the bonding angles of the graphite/diamond compounds, but I do know that each carbon atom covalently shares elcetrons with other carbon atoms filling (covalently) the outer electron shells of the atoms making it stable and strongly bonded.
