I've just been told that I have to write two quizes for tomorow. Both 15 questions, one on celebrities in general, and one on music.

This quiz is aimed at a group of teenagers, ages 12-18, and basically, can't be too easy or too difficult. I'm having trouble coming up with questions, and there is a great wealth of knowledge on here about everything, so I thought it couldn't hurt to ask for some question ideas!

They should just be simple Q and A, maybe have options for the more difficult ones.

Thanks in advance for the help! smile

Throw in some physics and general science questions. I would refuse to host a quiz based on celebrity culture.

Kids need to know how thick they really are. It's for their own good.

These aren't the only two quizzes! They're part of a quiz night being held on a residential for the Youth Cabinet members and Youth Parliament members of the County smile (I'm a member).

There will be other rounds on politics, sport, general knowledge, geography etc.

That's OK then.

They obviously look on you as the "intellectual" smile

I hope they're not all a bunch of mini David Millibands or Ed Balls?

hehe I should hope not! I couldn't deal with being locked in a secluded manor on the isle of Wight seafront for 3 days with them. And murder mystery night would get all too real.......

On the other hand, if they were the REAL Miiliband and Balls, a murder mystery evening might end up being a very good idea.
