Dot to Dot - the daily 5min Alexa demo show

In the first of these two True or False trivia-based games you are pitched head-to-head against similarly-skilled opponents from around the world. Then we look at a version that is a sudden-death against your family or friends. There's also a surprise appearance from an earlier superstar guest host. Hold on tight!

I'm imagining that Dad's Army needs no introduction - and hence this skill likewise needs no explanation. If you're not familiar with the popular radio and television sensation then give it a listen. It's a classic.

Can you guess the movie from the notable quote? Test your metal with this movie-related multiple-choice quiz skill. And we'll also get some random (and sometimes repeated) bits of movie trivia too.

What's Joey's favourite food? Why is Chandler named after a search engine? Who got their teeth whitened and had a smile to blind even someone wearing sunglasses? I've no idea if we'll find out the answers to these questions using this skill but we'll definitely discover similar stuff related to everyone's favourite TV show. Oh and BTW, if you're friends of this podcast please think about rating it on iTunes - thanks oodles.

He's pugnacious, he's slightly more than half-senile, but he's really funny (or at least I think he is). He's Count Arthur Strong and I'd recommend you give his radio series a go.

Just about to step out of the door for that well-earned and long-yearned-for holiday (that's a vacation for people across the pond) when you're suddenly riddled with doubt. Did you possibly forget some vital item? Let this skill take the strain.

Brace yourselves for a mental exploration of a mind maze in five dimensions. You've stuck with me this far so don't give up on me now guys. Also a nice quickie skill related to that most excellent of cult films; Labyrinth.

Like Twenty Questions or the Animal Game, this skill invites you to think of something - in this case a person either real or imaginary - and Alexa will guess it after a few questions (and possibly a few detours too as this skill seems to go off on tangents from time to time but get's there in the end).
