Great quiz. Deserved to be supported more
My girlfriend and I enjoyed the quiz. Of course this was helped by the fact that we were the winners! It was good fun however and pitched at the right level for keen fans of the show. The only dissapointing thing was the turn out as it really deserved better. We were surprised by this given the shows popularity, so can only conclude that more promotion would help.

Stranger Things Quiz, The Big Difference (formerly The Cookie), Leicester - 18th October 2018
Narrow range of questions but a nice atmosphere
This was a nice chance to meet up with friends at a nice venue, and there was a good atmosphere, it was a sell out and people were in high spirits. The first round of the quiz was easy for Partridge fans, but thankfully the questions got a bit harder as it went on, however it seemed strange that every question focused on the 2 series of "I'm Alan Partridge". The radio show, his appearences on the Day Today, Knowing Me Knowing You!!!! All ignored, as well as the film, his book, audio book, mid morning matters etc. As well as this 2 or 3 of the questions were a bit vague and extra points were given out at one point to teams who gave extra detail in an answer which wasn't asked for. To the credit of the quizmaster he was vigilant and suitably strict with cheats. I'd like to point out that I'm not a bad loser, I just prefer broader questions on a subject and my team lost a lot of man hours researching the wrong footage. I think I need an Irish Coffee to calm down, failing that a can of Fanta.
