Before you can do this exercise, you'll need to download and unzip this file (if you have any problems doing this, click here for help).

You need a minimum screen resolution of about 700 pixels width to see our exercises. This is because they contain diagrams and tables which would not be viewable easily on a mobile phone or small laptop. Please use a larger tablet, notebook or desktop computer, or change your screen resolution settings.

This challenging exercise asks you to create a report showing all of the actors appearing in films made by directors whose names start with B (please see notes overleaf):

What the first page of the report should look like

Some notes to help you:

  • You should apply a filter to the table so that you only see directors whose names are like B*
  • Your report will have two grouping fields: by director name, and then by actor gender

At the bottom of the table you should show a grand count:

There should be 43 cast members in all for the report

When you're all done, save this report (grammatically) as Who directed whom.
