The game's question
One clue, then the next – whoever has the first name says it, the other adds the surname.
Summer 1957. A singer the whole country called by his first name alone. The record spinning on the turntable, the volume turned up as far as it would go and somebody already dancing in the hall. On 12 July, ‘All Shook Up’ became his first number one in Britain and stayed at the top for seven weeks. Who was he? Circle his name together.
- Paul Anka
- Elvis Presley
- Guy Mitchell
Need a hint?
His first name has five letters. Say it out loud.
See the answer
Answer: Elvis Presley – ‘All Shook Up’, his first British number one, in 1957.
Why this game : Saying a famous first name together, then trading stories of the records and the dances of that summer.
