Product Description
Who invented the pub quiz?
The British, of course!
Who doesn't enjoy a rousing question-and-answer session over a pint and some scratchings? Indeed, what higher calling is there than standing in the pub loudly demanding answers to difficult questions like 'd'you want some?' Here, for your pleasure, Britain's leading pub landlord, The Pub Landlord, presents the finest collection of facts imaginable. Enjoy the attention of friends and strangers by revealing how many James Bonds there were, how many times the French have capitulated and exactly how long those pickled eggs have been in that jar on the bar.
The ladies love a well-read man and this book will give you the tools needed to impress her (don't worry, answers are included). None of your French-type philosophical musings here. No, this is a proper quiz for the Great British Public. In a public house. Or your living room.

Question 1:
During mating season, when foxes are in the act of coitus, they omit a bone-shuddering and blood-curdling screech that is often mistaken for the sound of a cat being brutally murdered.
But who is the lead singer of Duran Duran?
In these 240 pages you will find 506 other questions of varying difficulty on a wide variety of subjects:
Art
before they were famous, british history
cars/motors/wheels, chatshow hosts, colours, comedy, compulsory literary round, currency
disney films, drums/drummers/drumming
famous daves, famous misquotes, famous people what i have met, famous quotes, famous steves, film & tv of the 1960's,1970's,1980's,1990's and 2000's, food and drink, formula 1, france
glam rock, guess the lyrics
Kings and Queens
Music
nature, numbers
pictures, pot luck, prime ministers, prohibition
quiz shows
reality tv firsts
sayings, science and technology, shane richie, soaps, space, sport: mixed, football, the ashes, the olympics & tennis, star trek and doctor who, superheroes & other nonsense
the greatest drinkers, the human bean body, the movies of danny glover, the 1960s, 1970's, 1980's, 1990s, the romans, the theatre, tv chefs, tv detectives
who are you? who's who? world war champions of the world, world war 2 dates
The questions come in groups of five and the voice of the authors award winning persona is present throughout, which makes for a thoroughly entertaining, consistently funny and what I found to be an informative read.
To summarise, Al's writing style and the volume of questions ensures value for money and an entertaining read, whether you're playing quiz master to friends and family or unwinding with a beer or wine/fruit based drink by yourself.
Please take your glasses back to the bar!

We used this at our school PTA quiz night, and it worked really well and was hugely enjoyed by us all. Worth mentioning that no one found anything to be offended by either [can be a potential hazard at a school do], and it appealled equally well to men and women.
Al Murray's a clever bloke, and this is intelligent, warm, and very funny.
With a great breadth of subjects and questions for all, this would make a really good present for families to enjoy at their Christmas gatherings, but will be a great read into the New Year too.

Waste of money
I was looking forward to a new quiz book with up to date questions. This book is rubbish. It has stupid questions which are prefaced with some kind of stupid comment. Read more
