Delighted to be top team last week, but @lucythorpe.bsky.social and I are less confident our score of 20 will be enough to retain the title.

It's Friday so it must be time for the newsquiz. As usual there are 25 questions about the week's news. Why not give it a go and let me know your score. sandsmediaservices.blogspot.com/2026/01/have... #newspapers

Extremely satisfying score of 22 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me, a lot of news already in 2026.

Not a great start to our 2026 quizzing year with 17.5 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. Happy new year to you Peter and all our fellow quizzers.

Happy new year to all you newsquizzers. Hope you had a great time but still kept up with what's going on in the world. Here's the first newsquiz of the year. Good luck and have a great 2026. sandsmediaservices.blogspot.com/2026/01/firs... Don't forget to let me know your score. #newspapers

Ending 2025 on a relative high with 21 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. Best wishes to all fellow quizzers and of course to our indefatigable quizmaster general.

It's Boxing Day so why not pour yourself a glass of fizz and tackle the newsquiz? As usual there are 25 questions about the week. Why not give it a go and let me know your score. sandsmediaservices.blogspot.com/2025/12/the-... #newspapers

Thanks Adam. And thanks to you and Lucy for doing the quiz each week. Appreciated. Have a great festive break and maybe 2026 will be the year for a catch-up.

Pleased with our score of 20 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. Wondering what US immigration will make of that score?

One down on our usual 19 for @lucy and me after what will forever be known in this house as ‘Buddygate’

Our usual boringly reliable 19 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. As predictable as an English batting collapse.

What is becoming our normal 19 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. So old I’d never even heard of the I’m a ‘celebrity’ people.

Not bad…19 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me, despite our best efforts to edit out our wrong answers.

Our score of 18 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me is probably as forgettable as the new Meghan Markle movie inevitably will be.

A very respectable 22 out of 25 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and our Porto pals Ben and Bella.

Pretty happy with 21 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. I wonder how Andrew from Windsor will have fared?

17 for myself and the Spanish golfers, hard to keep track of events from afar.

A slightly disappointing 15 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. Feeling almost as sick as the chap from Barnsley.

DailyMail trainee Joe Rossiter won the newsquiz champagne with a score of 19. Can you do better? sandsmediaservices.blogspot.com/2025/10/joe-... As usual there are 25 questions about the week. Why not give it a score and let me know your score. #newspapers

Happy with 18.5 - less ignorant than Emma Watson, admittedly a low bar

19 for Sarah and me

A bang average 16 for me in the absence of my quiz compadre @lucythorpe.bsky.social

A decent if not prize winning score of 19 for the Mountain Men, holed up in the Boot Inn, in Cumbria during a biblical deluge

A respectable 18.5 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. Do Ipswich Town have any other famous fans?

Well done to Daily Mail trainee Daisy Outram who won this week's newsquiz with a score of 20.5, narrowly ahead of Giorgia ambo on 20. Well done to both. Can you do better? Give it a go and let me know your score. sandsmediaservices.blogspot.com/2025/09/dais...

Much happier with this week’s score of 19 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. With a following wind it could have been 21.

Another lamentable 13 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me, obviously distracted by the pubs and countryside of East Sussex.

A piss poor 13 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. Clearly not been paying attention

A perfectly respectable 18 for @lucythorpe.bsky.social and me. I can’t possibly share what Lucy suggested for the Jenrick question. It’s not a word you hear often on Thought for the Day.
