Test your bell ringing and general knowledge

In this month’s show, podcast host Cathy Booth transforms into the next Anne Robinson as she joins the ringers of St John’s in New Alresford for their fortnightly Zoom quiz.

Fingers on buzzers as the ringers introduce each other and ask their two allotted quiz questions. There’s one point for each correct answer, so why not play along at home and see if you can beat their top score.

Test out both your bell ringing and general knowledge in some great company, whilst getting to know each ringer’s background, interests and talents. As you move round the tower you’ll discover just what an accomplished bunch they are.

And if you’re in need of a tie-break, you can always try working out the band’s combined peal tally!

The ringers setting the questions and taking part in this quiz were:

• Tony Ayres
• Roger Booth
• Hamish Corfield
• Andrew Johnson
• Elizabeth Johnson
• Windy Ling
• Rodney Skinner
