Cryptic Tv Quiz

[sally11558]

Are these three connected in some way? Assuming they're not, Corky was the main character in Circus Boy, a US kids show in the 1950s. Corky was played by Micky Dolenz, who later surfaced in The Monkees and went on to be a noted director of British television. Maybe you could give an example of one of these questions, so we could see the kind of thinking the quiz employs?

"Danger!" was shouted by the robot in 'Lost in Space' to alert the characters about....er....Danger!
