As well as the General Knowledge rounds the quizzers tackled ten other subjects during the month of February. They were:
- English Counties
- Take a Gamble
- Agriculture and Farming
- Authors
- The Golden Age of Cinema
- Going under
- Record breaking
- Ancient history
- A Rocky subject
- Food and drink related
Have a go and see how many out of 12 you would get right, don’t google beforehand though.
- Which county is Flash, the highest village in Britain, located in?
- In which year did betting shops become legal in Britain?
- What happens to cattle if they have been polled?
- Robert Galbraith is the pseudonym of which author?
- What is the predominant colour of a post box in France?
- Name the five Marx brothers
- Who had a hit with the song ‘Under the board walk’?
- Who holds the record as the longest serving TV presenter in the world?
- Which city of antiquity did Hannibal rule?
- The word ‘geology’ originates from which language?
- Name the five cities in England that contain the word ‘ham’
- On a dart board, what number is found to the right of the number 3 ?
In the first quiz, The English Counties and Agriculture and Farming rounds tied in first place; with one team achieving a 10 out of 10 round. General Knowledge proved to be the weakest link.
The second time we zoomed together, Food and Drink was the best round. This was due to two jokers being played. The worst score showed that the quizzers are going under!
Our quizzes for March are scheduled to take place on Mondays the 10th and 24th.
