The Thursday Quiz in The Guardian

I’ve started this thread only so that I can post my best ever score in the Guardian’s Thursday quiz.

I had a shocker last week, but this week……

It’s here if anyone thinks they can do better.

10/15

Which is suprising, I feel I read a lot of news but some of that was, well, news to me!

I love this quiz and do it every week.

I’ve already forgotten my score from this morning :sweat_smile: I think it was 11/15

My proudest moment was the week I posted a comment where I played on a commonly seen complaint and the quiz writer replied to say that I’d made him laugh.

4/15.

3 were lucky guesses.

The one I knew:

  • the spaceport. I’m proper hyped for it. It’ll be right on my doorstep and I can’t wait.

Some good general knowledge, current affairs, and at least two educated guesses (the PG film and Brian May)

It’s the first time I’ve ever seen that quiz.


(Sorry, I do play on a pub quiz team.)

10/15

Annoyed by the Anne Boleyn question, where I managed to get it down to 50/50 (I remembered the rhyme) but went with the wrong one.

Few more near misses too, where I considered the right answer and veered away from it. Grr. Had I not doubted myself I could’ve been claiming 12/15.

What’s the link for the new one? I need to redeem myself after last week.

Add the following to your bookmarks and you’ll be sorted for every week hence:
