IT’S ANOTHER SATURDAY night, so that means another pub quiz on TheJournal.ie.
We can’t go the pub right now, but that doesn’t mean the noble tradition of pub quizzing needs to fall by the wayside.
You can even make this your evening quiz over a zoom call with pals.
There’s five categories this week – geography, sports, TV, history and then some general knowledge.
(And you can also find here parts one and two).
Best of luck.

That was tough!!!
11/25 started really well, stumbled then loss the plot…oh well.
When are the schools opening?
@Logan Shepherd: my quiz results suggest they’ve been closed near me for over 30 years
Triple crown in racing normally refers to US racing,Kentucky derby the Preakness and the Belmont stakes. The British “triple crown” is the 2000 guineas the derby and the leger, all races for colts 1000 guineas is for fillies. But hey it’s the journal why am I surprised
@James O Lone: the British triple crown was specifically mentioned in the question
@Dave O’Keeffe:….. and they got thumbs up for not being able to read a question correctly.
@James O Lone: loads of countries have their own triple crowns for racing, that is why British is in the question. You are too ignorant to realise that the journal are correct.
@James O Lone: I’d say go back and read the question again
@Peter Clancy: it’s simple, some people will like anything if it’s attached to an insult of the free app they’re taking advantage of.
@James O Lone: Pathetic complaint. Read the question again. It was clear as day. And leave the Journal if its standards aren’t living up to your expectations.
@James O Lone: by the way, fillies can run in all the races you mentioned. Colts can’t run in Oaks or 1000, but fillies can run in all the classics.
Goring commuted suicide in his cell and was never executed
@Poppa Noob: the question doesn’t mention execution.
@Poppa Noob: I fell for that one as well.
@Poppa Noob: question just says faced trial at Nuremberg. The others committed suicide beforehand and Heydrich was assassinated.
Good quiz. 14 with a few near misses.
Why would anyone allow themselves to be referred to as ‘Gooch’? Don’t they know what it means?
21 Jesus I should do these after s few beers more often
18/25
6 outa 25 on a different note I’ve not watched breaking bad yet meant to a good film,and yeah I need to stop these quizzes because let’s face it I’m utter sh$t cant even guess them:-/
@Aaron Jones: TV series rather than a film but one of the best. I almost gave up as the first few episodes are slow but friends encouraged me to stick with it and boy! was I glad I did! There is a later spin-off series called “Better Call Saul” which is pretty much just as good.
15/25, damn you Caesar was killed before he took office (insert grrr emoji)
@Richard Cronin: That was one I knew, and I tapped Julius instead of Augustus, kicking myself now.
have your say
