BackBoris September pub quiz

Over 100 Londoners teamed up to take one another on in last night's BackBoris pub quiz!

With the Mayor joining in as our guest quizmaster for a special round of trivia and facts about our capital, it was a Tuesday night well spent. In his inimitable way, Boris quizzed attendees on topics ranging from the Underground and London football league teams to when Londoners first 'spent a penny' to use public conveniences.

Giving almost as many unscripted bonus question as actual questions in that round, our scorers were kept on their toes!

Following a very close-run game, the victorious group was team number 6. Congratulations and we hope you enjoy your BackBoris goody bags.

We'll be holding more quizzes over the coming months, so watch our website and newsletters for more information.

Special thanks to the Fullers Telegraph pub in Moorgate for allowing us to take over their venue for the night!
