The Frontline Club Quiz – July 2015

Talk Thursday 16 July 2015, 7:45 PM

questionmarks_bannerThe Club Quiz returns in July with quizmasters Caroline Johns and Dr Keith Surridge. Use this great excuse to get your friends together and explore the members’ Clubroom with its fascinating history and displays of memorabilia.

Teams can consist of up to six people, and there will be five rounds of 10 questions. The entry cost is £5 per person, with all money raised going to the Frontline Fund, assisting families of fixers around the world killed or injured while working with the international media.

Caroline Johns is a reformed historian, having given up her PhD when the roof of her garret caved in and the novelty of penury wore off. She left the hallowed groves of academe (lecturing on the BA Journalism course at City University) to cross to ‘the dark side’ that is the private sector and now works for Deloitte as speechwriter to the UK CEO and chief of staff to the global chairman.

Dr Keith Surridge is a history lecturer in several American college programmes in London. He is the co-author of The Boer War (with Denis Judd), which, if you look hard, may even still be available in some good book shops.
