We love a good quiz. Is there anything to be said for a quiz? They can be some great fun. Get some friends together, pull up a real doozy of a question sheet, and see which of your friends is the most prolific and knee deep in the lore of My Little Pony... just me? That's embarrassing...
But here at That's Old News, we had to look up how to spell "fun" in the dictionary just so I could write up that last paragraph. No, here we must do everything serious. We are all in constant competition with each other in an attempt to prove who is the historical mastermind and who's still playing with their Vikings colouring book... okay that sounds pretty cool, BUT STILL. But what better way to find out exactly who that intellectual powerhouse is than to do a quiz of 100 history questions!
So join us this week as the gang tackles their hardest challenge to date - sitting an exam. But we couldn't simply just answer our own tests, that would leave too much room for cheating! So we've brought in a VERY special guest to oversee the whole operation. Tune in to meet her!
And we want to hear from you! How did you do in the quiz yourself? Did you beat the champion, and take the crown for yourself? Play along with us!
