FUN MOVIE AND TV STUFF TO ASK GOOGLE HOME Want to have a bit of fun with Google Home? Here are a bunch of specific movie andTV-related questions to ask it in order to trigger some cool (and some dumb) responses. It's also worth noting that some of these questions can give you different responses, so it may be worth tauntin- erm, asking a second (or even third) time. 2001: A Space Odyssey Hey Google, open the pod bay doors. A Few Good Men Hey Google, I want the truth. Hey Google, you can't handle the truth. Back to the Future Hey Google, great Scott! Blade Runner Hey Google, are you a replicant? Hey Google, I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Dirty Dancing Hey Google, nobody puts Baby in a corner. Fight Club Hey Google, what’s the first rule of Fight Club? Forrest Gump Hey Google, run, Forrest, run! Frozen Hey Google, do you want to build a snowman? Game ofThrones Hey Google, Hodor Hodor Hodor! Hey Google, winter is coming. Ghostbusters Hey Google, who are you gonna call? Harry Potter Hey Google, mischief managed. Home Alone Hey Google, Merry Christmas ya filthy animal! Jerry Maguire Hey Google, show me the money! Mad Max: Fury Road Hey Google, witness me. Monty Python and the Holy Grail Hey Google, your mother was a hamster. Hey Google, what is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? Scarface Hey Google, say hello to my little friend. Seven Hey Google, what’s in the box? SnowWhite and the Seven Dwarfs Hey Google, mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of

adding three or four of these would create a great effect. Colour-wise, like all Philips Hue lights, you have 16 million different options to choose from (good luck with that!). Next up is the Outdoor Spot Lily, a spotlight constructed of the same matte black aluminium; it feels like what it is – a premium product. Again, the Lily is wired and comes with options to mount it both on a wall or the ground. In operation, the Lily throws elegant, mood lighting at a tree, across a wall or even along a pathway, reminiscent of the coloured spotlights used to highlight castles and stately homes at night in Europe. It’s an effective way to bring your garden to vibrant life after dark. Finally, the brilliant five-metre-long weatherproof Lightstrip opens up a myriad of installation options to illuminate a deck, wall, external kitchen, or even the ceiling. Although the individual LEDs cannot be replaced,

the Lightstrip will give you 25,000 hours of illumination. There really is no excuse to maximise the lighting options in the back garden, bringing a totally customisable symphony of colour in the palm of your hand.
