What a bump

Just to appease the poll winners....

On 21 September 2016, De Mooi was arrested at Heathrow Airport in connection with claims, which he had reportedly made in his autobiography, that in 1988 he had punched a drug-addicted mugger and thrown him into a canal in Amsterdam. De Mooi was detained under a European Arrest Warrant issued in the Netherlands. A judge at Westminster Magistrates' Court declined the extradition request on technical grounds, on 24 October 2016, saying that no UK arrest warrant had been issued.

In October 2018, De Mooi was declared bankrupt following lengthy legal proceedings in connection with the arrest.

That poll needs to be refreshed to include the most likely winner, Olaf (the big I am of quizzing)


On another note, it would be great to see a quiz show which involved Chasers v Eggheads, in some format that is not dragged out like they do with egghead questions (ie c24 questions in a 25 minute show)

Olav writes a daily quiz for The Times. There's a few of us in work that do it over Teams. It's pretty difficult unless you watch shit loads of TV, read books and get off on knowing historical kings and queens. None of that applies to me.
