    • I don’t know about London Times but they were all on BBC website. I did tweak the cricket and Son in law one a little bit otherwise they would have been too easy.

      • I often look at the BBC news pages – or at least some of them, to judge by the results! You’ll have to repeat the idea in a few weeks’ time to test our attention to detail!

  21. Excellent idea for a quiz – you are endlessly inventive! I got 10 out of 12 (I missed the plague and the cricket questions). I do hope you’ll do more like this 🙂

    • Thank you for such high praise Norman. i thought you might think I was copying your idea about News Quiz but you haven’t posted them in a while so I decided to make one of my own..You are not a fan of cricket? What would Eoin Morgan say?

      • Eoin Morgan? Some relation of Morgan Freeman?!
        This quiz is totally different from the 2 news quizzes I made. If I in some way inspired you to do this then I am proud 🙂
