Holy
Trinity School
Quiz – March 2009
Just one BCV
team – the aptly-named Give Ups. The Musicals round was a distinct let-down
– just 2/10 scored, leaving us trailing in the bottom three at one
stage, but we did restore some pride at the end with a maximum-scoring
Joker round on Abba songs. Final
place: 5th out of 14 teams, score 72 points. Once again, Emily and Martin both won prizes
in the raffle, which this time had a Red Nose theme.
Holy
Trinity School
Quiz – October 2008
Due to last-minute
cancellations, our teams (imaginatively named BCV1 and BCV2) were depleted,
and could only manage 9th and 16th places out of 16 teams! Emily won the star raffle prize of a
shopping bag, while Martin won the scary face mask.
Holy
Trinity School
Quiz – February 2008
A very
well-supported quiz – it must be a record attendance, 22 teams in
total including two BCV teams – so it was a busy evening for scorer
Glyn. “Hedging Our Bets”
finished in equal-fourth place with 93 points out of a possible 110. “Win Some Lose Some” finished
on a respectable 82. The
reverse-bingo prize fund included some Fairtrade chocolate goodies donated
by Lawrence
… and almost won by Lawrence – one of the last two left
standing.
Holy
Trinity School
Quiz – September 2007
We just had a
team of three this time (Martin T, Emily and Richard S – appearing as
“Cutting Edge”) as Lawrence was
away in Greece,
and there didn’t seem to be any other takers. Despite the depleted team, we still
managed to defend our title successfully, winning by 5 points with a score
of 88.
Holy
Trinity School
Quiz – March 2007
BCV fielded two complete teams, and it was the
“Billhooks” team of Lawrence, Martin T, Richard S and Emily who
emerged the clear overall winners by 3 points with a total score of 94,
thanks to a good range of musical knowledge between them (from “Fir” Elise to Holly Valance in the musical trees
round) and the odd bit of inspired guesswork (Wishbone Ash). The team also had
a bit of assistance from Shaun, with his knowledge of Chelsea FC and Sonic
the Hedgehog (notice the blue theme?). Thanks to Shane for another
enjoyable quiz. The other BCV team
“Win Some Lose Some” also put up a reasonable fight. The raffle had its usual mix of
“interesting” items, but Richard won the star prize of some
Fairtrade chocolates (no prizes for guessing who donated them!), duly
shared out amongst the teams.
Holy
Trinity School
Quiz – October 2005
Our team entered as The Hedgelayers and made a great start. This time we were
up to full strength with Martin S, Martin T, Lawrence and adding a bit of sense to the
team, Emily. It remained neck and
neck with the top 4 teams throughout and gave a nail-biting finale as we
came in third. The evening was as entertaining as ever with the usual
wonderful raffle prizes and a win on the Reverse Bingo for Martin S. Next quiz due in March 2006 - with
Richard back it only needs three more volunteers to make up another team,
you don't have to be a genius - after all Lawrence is in a team! (Report by

Holy
Trinity School
Quiz – March 2005
As defending Champions of the Holy Trinity Quiz, our
team entered the March quiz under the name of the Artisans. The pressure of defending the title
got to Martin and Neil and they didn't manage to make an appearance. Lawrence could only
make it to half time leaving Richard to continue on his own and the team
being renamed to the Artisan. Despite
this, Richard finished in 4th place, only 10 points behind the winners. We can only say what if? and hope
that this single handed achievement will be backed up by the rest of the
team in October and regain the title. COME
ON YOU ARTISANS!
