Some Quick Quiz Pics

We've been extremely busy since we last updated our blog! In fact we've hosted more than 60 quizzes since then - for banks, companies, charities, schools and social clubs.

So here's a selection of photos from the past twelve months!

Cheggers Plays Quiz

A pub at Heathrow Terminal 5 is one of the more unusual venues we've hosted a quiz at, but DJ Pat Sharp and TV legend Keith Chegwin asking the questions elevated it to the ever-so-slightly surreal.

That said, a terrific time was had by 50 employees of a major pharmaceuticals company, who were delighted, entertained, informed and bemused in equal measure.

Pat and Keith had never worked together before, but we have to say there was a certain chemistry there which makes us think this is one 80s double act that really should have happened!

Scaling The Quizzy Heights

The past twelve months have been exceptionally busy here at Brain Men - The Quiz Professionals. Here are some of the highlights.

Our highest profile quiz of the year is the annual fundraiser for campaigning charity English PEN, which we've been involved with in one way or another for almost a decade now. This year's celebrity host at the impressive St Pancras Renaissance Hotel in London was actor and comedian Omid Djalili, a very amusing gentleman and an utter delight to work with. There were one or two celebs in the audience too...

Earlier in the year we presented our sixth annual fundraising quiz for Working Families, the charity which helps parents, carers and employers towards a proper work-life balance. The quiz took place at the historic Vintners' Hall in the City of London...

The annual quiz at the Sadhu Vaswani spiritual centre in north west London is one of our favourites. 2015 was the fourth we've done for them, raising money for a very worthy cause...

We've not just been helping organisations to raise funds, we're also in demand for fun quizzes to entertain commercial clients as well as colleagues and staff. In the past year we've worked for the likes of Apple, Goldman Sachs, DNB Bank, Danone, The Royal College of Psychiatrists, APPI Health Group and London & Capital. Here's a wintery snap from our sixth annual quiz for Origin Asset Management early in the year at the London Wall Bar & Kitchen, next to the Museum of London...

In addition we hosted a more intimate quiz for KPMG partners at their international summer conference in Sussex...

And an entertaining quiz for the staff of the British Safety Council at their summer party...

We've also been going down a storm with schools, and have produced PTA quizzes for The Roche School and St Paul's Girls' School in south west London, and Belmont School (Mill Hill Preparatory) in north London...

And we've been putting on monthly quizzes for the Royal Over-Seas League in the heart of London, plus regular quizzes for the cricket magazine The Nightwatchman in the iconic Long Room at the Oval...

So as you can see, Brain Men truly are the quiz professionals. If you're looking for fun and entertainment at your upcoming event, just tell us about your intended audience and we'll do the rest. Our quizzes are tailor-made, original, accurate, entertaining and thoroughly researched. Unlike others we could name, we don't cull questions from quiz books or the internet.

More to the point, our quizzes are meant to fun, not an exam! We can add music rounds, film and TV rounds, picture rounds and electronic scoring, just about anything you like to sharpen your guests' competitive instincts, as well as keeping them informed and amused.

For more information or for a quote for your quiz, email us at info@brainmen.co.uk or speak to one of our friendly Quiz Producers on 020 7272 4448.

Cofunds Quiz In Witham

Three pics from another recent quiz, this time for Cofunds in Witham. Team building was the name of the game for this after-work entertainment. Appropriately enough, all the teams built up pretty impressive scores! Marcus Berkmann was our Brain Men Quizmaster on this occasion.

Brain Men Pose Origin Quiz

Here are a few happy snaps from the Origin Asset Management Charity Challenge Quiz 2014 recently, where around 70 of the City's best brains gathered at the London Wall Bar and Kitchen to do battle with our fiendish Brain Men questions for the chance to donate a total of £2500 to a charity of their choice.

Quiz News

A lot's been happening since we last updated these pages!

First off, here at Brain Men we often assist charities with their fundraising events. So we're proud to be associated with Help for Heroes and their upcoming Big Hero Quiz. You can find out more by clicking here, although please note, the questions we wrote for them are quite a bit harder than the examples they've used on their website!

And earlier this month we held a quiz at Goldsmiths College in London on behalf of the Association of University Engineers. Our Quizmaster was Chris Pollikett, who fired off six rounds of ten questions over the course a couple of hours. Appropriately enough, this year's winners were called Last Year's Winners! Here are a couple of snaps:

 

Symantec/Norton Quiz Tests Journalists' 'Wetware'

Six teams of technology journalists joined battle at The Old Explorer off London's Oxford Street last week in our latest bespoke Brain Men quiz.

The quiz marked the launch of the 18th Norton/Symantec Internet Security Threat Report (ISTR). Fittingly enough, the quiz was won by a team calling itself The Brian People. They pipped Brewster's Minions and The Pink Paperclips into second and third respectively!

RSA Quiz Lands Safely At Heathrow

Brain Man Chris Pollikett was our Quizmaster at Heathrow's Park Inn Hotel last week for the RSA 2012 Quiz, attended by over 100 people. In a very successful departure from our usual rounds format, we fired off 30 quiztacular questions over 30 minutes, all accompanied by music, photos, animations and film clips.

After the scores were tallied, Two Bottles of Champagne were the winning team, with 50 Shades of Grey Matter (great name!) runners-up and Old Blokes and a Lady in third place. 'Feedback from the event has been incredibly positive so thank you once again for your contribution,' was the client's verdict!

Quiz At The Savoy

Here are some snaps from the splendiforous Brain Men quiz for 360 suited and booted captains of industry, fund managers and other assorted brainiacs at The Savoy in London the other week. Marcus Berkmann was our quizmaster, and a terrific time was had by all. 'Our guests found it entertaining and seemed very competitive' was the verdict!

Apollo's Night Takes Off With Brain Men Quiz

Our intrepid Brain Men Quizmaster Marcus Berkmann charmed the crowd with his confounding quizology during the Apollo Global Management Summer 2012 bash recently at the excellent Living Room, W1, just off Regent Street.

The competition was stiff, with only 14 points separating top placers The Ben Johnson Running Club, who scored 82/100, from the wooden spooners at the bottom after five rounds of tough quizzing.

Taking Care Of Quizziness

In the past week we've helped raise money for a children's hospice with a quiz for corporate benefactors, and been booked by a major bank to host a City of London treasure hunt.

We're also working on three quizzes over the next three weeks - another charity fundraiser (at the Reform Club), a quiz for an 85th birthday, and a warmer-upper at a national retailer event for one of the big video game companies.

Origin Charity Challenge Quiz 2012

As promised, here are a few snaps from our dinner quiz for Origin Asset Management last night. It's fair to say that a good time was had by all, which is what we aim for when we put on one of these professional quizzes.

Brain Man Marcus Berkmann was our quizmaster for the evening. ThinkFolio carried off this year's trophy, and a cheque for their chosen charity - Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research.

Thanks to the excellent London Wall Bar & Kitchen for the superb food and wine. And thanks to Origin Asset Management for being such lovely clients!

Who's A Naughtie Boy Then?

Radio 4 Today presenter James Naughtie (also famed for his on air spoonerisms) fronted up our annual quiz for English PEN last night at the Royal Institute of British Architects.

There wasn't a Jeremy Hunt in sight, although Michael Gove, Secretary of State for Education, was on the Times team.

Top three scores on the doors, in what is designed to be one of our toughest quizzes of the year, were: The Agile Agents (A P Watt) (64/75), The Telegraph (63/75) and The Times (63/75). Bottom of the heap of 23 teams were Bloomberg (34/75).

Congratulations to everyone who took part - tons of money was raised for English PEN (which does splendid work campaigning for press freedom around the world) through ticket sales, joker rounds and new membership sign-ups.
