[Answer] Rossini’s “William Tell Overture” was the theme song of what TV show?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Rossini’s “William Tell Overture” was the theme song of what TV show?"



...The William Tell Overture is the overture to the opera William Tell, whose music was composed by Gioachino Rossini. For many Americans, the finale of the twelve minute overture is irrevocably remembered for its exciting final three minutes, which came to serve as the theme music for the Lone Ranger in radio, television and film. Just think "Hi, ho Silver, away!" and the tune will likely pop into your mind. The overture has been used in numerous other popular culture works and has appeared in everything from Disney movies to Stanley Kubrick’s 1971 film A Clockwork Orange.

[Answer] If London Bridge were really falling down, into which river would it land?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "If London Bridge were really falling down, into which river would it land?"



...London Bridge is a simple box girder bridge made of concrete and steel that crosses the River Thames in central London. The original wooden bridge was built by the Romans nearly 2,000 years ago, and several versions have stood in its place since. The bridge we see today opened in 1973, replacing the 19th-century stone bridge that was famously sold and relocated to Lake Havasu City, Arizona. No one is totally sure why there's a nursery rhyme about the London Bridge collapsing, but some think it references a destructive Viking raid in the year 1014.

[Answer] Who played the role of “The Good” in the 1966 Western The Good, the Bad and the Ugly?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Who played the role of “The Good” in the 1966 Western The Good, the Bad and the Ugly?"



...Clint Eastwood portrayed “The Good” — a laconic, sharp-shooting bounty hunter — in Sergio Leone’s 1966 Italian spaghetti Western film, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. The film completed Leone’s “Dollars Trilogy,” following A Fistful of Dollars and For a Few Dollars More, all of which helped cement Eastwood’s image as the ultimate Western antihero. Alongside Lee Van Cleef as “The Bad” and Eli Wallach as “The Ugly,” Eastwood’s stoic presence and minimal dialogue became legendary, defining both the film and the modern Western genre.

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "The number 5 is the first digit of all account numbers associated with which major credit card?"



...Credit card numbers follow a global system called the Major Industry Identifier, where the first digit reveals the network or industry associated with the card. MasterCard numbers always begin with the digit 5, setting them apart from other major networks: Visa cards start with 4, American Express with 34 or 37, and Discover typically with 6. These identifiers help banks, merchants, and payment processors quickly determine the card network and routing system.
