Many thanks to everyone who came along to the Radio Lollipop Edinburgh quiz night on Wednesday 5 September 2007.

The quiz was an overwhelming success with 11 teams taking part. Over £300 was raised for Radio Lollipop. The funds will be used to directly improve the service we provide to the Royal Hospital for Sick Children in Edinburgh.

Congratulations to the ‘Bamber Gascoigne’ team who won the quiz with 81 points out of a total of 110. There were only 3 points separating the top 3 teams. ‘Five Alive’ came last with 45 points but they did not leave empty handed – they won the exclusive Radio Lollipop wooden spoons.

Special thanks go to Mrs Barr for the fantastic buffet and to everyone at Sighthill bowling club for all their help.

It’s hoped that we will be able to make the quiz night an annual fundraising event.

If you were unable to make it along on the night here are 5 of the questions asked on the night. Email us at edinburgh@radiololllipop.org if you think you know the answers (and no using the internet to find the answers)!!

1) Who was the last person to win Best British Male at the Brits in consecutive years?
