Connections 177

This pub quiz pack contains five entertaining "Connections" rounds for you to use in your quizzes. These should prove especially useful if you're looking to introduce a bit of variety into your pub quiz because, as well as featuring high-quality general knowledge questions, there are also questions asking for connections between previous answers.

Each round is made up of ten questions. Some of these rounds consist of two "mini" rounds, with two sets of four general knowledge questions, plus questions five and ten that ask for a connection between the previous four answers. Other rounds are made up of nine general knowledge questions plus a final question asking for a connection between the previous nine answers. An example of one of these rounds is as follows...

1. Which government department is responsible for immigration, passports, counter-terrorism, policing, drugs and crime?    
The Home Office

2. "Loathe slim win" is an anagram of which famous sports star?    
Lewis Hamilton

3. What word can be put before "and honey" to give the Cockney rhyming slang term for money?    
Bread

4. Thistlethwaite's algorithm, Kociemba's Algorithm and Korf's Algorithm are all methods of solving what?    
The Rubik's Cube

5. Released in 1998 when she was just 12 years old, what was the title of Charlotte Church's debut album?

9. Thought to have sold over 15 million copies worldwide, which book by Dale Carnegie is generally regarded as the best-selling self-help book of all time?    
How To Win Friends And Influence People

10. What is the connection between the previous nine answers?    
TV shows - The Office, Lewis, Bread, The Cube, The Voice, Dallas, Doctors, Neighbours, Friends

These rounds always prove challenging and entertaining as, along with trying to answer each question individually, the teams in your quiz will also be trying to find a connection along the way. They also have the added feature that once teams guess the connection, they might go back over previous questions where they might be able to have a better guess at an answer, or even change an answer that doesn't fit in with the connection.

Note that these rounds already appear in Weekly Quizzes 886 to 890.
