    No - I've always wanted to run a Christmas quiz, but because I have to do it on a weekend, there isn't the time to do it in December as everyone is too busy.

      I hear what you are saying but the cars, hotel and airline are just a tad too easy IMO. Just my opinion like.
      I bet you didn't get nearly all the logos...

      You'll do well on the people pictures (tomorrow), but CUK is a very different demographic from the people who will be coming to the quiz.

          I appreciate the feedback, honestly

          I meant that there are some "easy" pictures in the people because for 50% of the audience they haven't heard of anyone who might have appeared in the hit parade in the past twenty years...

          I did a music round one year where I played intros from musicals - the really tricky one was from Rocky Horror, but it was things like Joseph, Les Mis, Miss Saigon, Mary Poppins, Jesus Christ Superstar, Evita etc. One guy brought his answer paper up, banged it down on the table, said "don't think much of your taste in musicals" and walked off.

          They then moaned at the end of the night that they only come because they come last, and that year there was no booby prize, so they wouldn't bother in the future...

              They are a competitive bunch

              The best score so far on the logos is Zippy with 11/15

                Just done the numbers...

                The answer to number 3 isn't a number :-(

                Nor is the book but at least it has a number!

                I think the level is OK for a team quiz.... although I have probably got them all wrong - in which case it is too hard!

                  The question has a number in it, though.

                  Wait until we get to Thursday's questions - the link between the name of the round and some of the questions is a bit tenuous because I was grasping at straws by then...

                      You've scored the same on all three rounds so far.

                      (Did you know that there are two pages of the logos?)
