The National Pub Quiz Championships took place recently, testing contestants’ knowledge across a broad range of topics. Questions covered areas including natural history – identifying species like the Grey Dagger moth – and culinary arts, such as the pan used for paella. Pop culture was also heavily featured, with questions about the *Lethal Weapon* films, the *Titanic*, and *Back to the Future*. Geography and brand recognition were also assessed, probing knowledge of islands near Hong Kong and the secret ingredient of a famous brand. The competition also included a question about the medical condition bruxism and the debut of Sherlock Holmes. The event culminated in the crowning of new champions demonstrating superior general knowledge.
