Rubbish - been out of the country too much this year so not up to date on the 'second tier' news stories

I thought this would be about current affairs . Instead it's more "fancy that" type news that you get on social media and which I'm not that interested in. That's my excuse anyway!

Re: BBC Quiz of the year 2018
Think it has very slowly drifted that way over the many years we have done this. Either that or, as I get older, I pay less attention to the second-tier/fancy-that news.Billy Whiz wrote:I thought this would be about current affairs .

Today's 8 was therefore a tad lucky.
