Reporting from Central London

Cafe Koha in St Martins Court was the scene of Thursday nights fundraising fracas which was nearly labelled as rowdy by the organisers office, with a close run affair resulting in team 'Beauties and the Beast' whisking the inaugural Men-in-tights-Quiznight-Winners title away from the bookies favourites, team 'Pretty Shity Gang Bang'

There has been notable preparation in the run up to the quiznight. A joint statement from the offices of the UK Quiznight Organisational Body and the Government Fisheries Department said "over the last week we have had unique demand for fish based products and it has become obvious that the level of cerebral preparation by all teams for this test of mental dexterity has been unparalleled". Captain Birdseye was unavailable for comment.

With questions created to bring balance to the multinational flavour of English, American, Scot, Australian, Norwegian, French, Welsh, South Africans and Zimbabwean team members, there was only one contentious question throughout the evening, requiring a mind bendingly tough call on whether salt beef and corned beef are products of the same curing process. Although inconsequential to the outcome, the organisers office upheld the decision that whilst having separate names, the process to create each shares many major similarities.

With a late charge by Team 'Sangie' and their correct answer to the bonus question, teams 'Beauties and the Beast' and 'Pretty Shitty Gang Bang' went to a double tie breaker after both correctly answering the length of a mouse gestation period. Ultimately, 'Beauties and the Beast' were only two years out with their 1963 answer to the year Barbie Dolls received flexible leg joints, a tie breaker question kindly supplied by Ken. This was sufficient for clear yet hard won victory.
