If you’d had told us 12 months ago that a virtual quiz with our pals every weekend would be the highlight of our weeks, we would have scoffed right in your face, ‘An online quiz? Hah, you’re alright thanks, I think I’ll stick to my actual social life, thanks’.

But oh, how we were wrong. Zoom quizzes have become our quarantine bread and butter in recent months, and about the only thing keeping us sane ATM. It’s good to keep a little healthy competition going between yourself and your friends or family, and so, the weekend quiz has quickly become a thing of refuge.

You’ve probably been thrown grueling questions about currencies and Roman emperors by now, and while you realise that you should probably brush up on your 5th-year Geography, you know where your strengths lie, and that’s with pop culture.

We might not know the square root of 64, but we do know all the names of the Kar-Jenner babies and in what order they were born, so who’s the real winner here?

If it’s your turn to be quizmaster this weekend, and topics like sport and science don’t float your boat, then we’re here to help.

So, without further ado, it’s the big pop culture quiz of the year…
