Especially ideal for use in a Christmas themed pub quiz, this handout round features a cryptic crossword with 20 clues, where all the answers are words that are related to Christmas. For example, the correct answer to the clue "boss without a box" is "manger". This is because "manager" is another word for "box", and if this is spelt without one of its letter "a"s, it spells "manger", a type of box mentioned in the Navity story.

Some of these cryptic clues are fairly straightforward to get teams started, but some may take a bit of puzzling over before teams arrive at the correct answer, so this quiz round should keep teams entertained for a while.

It is recommended that this handout round is used in a quiz as a handout round. For more information on handout rounds and our recommended use for them in quizzes click here

If you buy this handout round, we will give you access to pdf files you can download. Two of these will be for the main handout sheet - one as illustrated above, and one in a more plain format. The third sheet will contain the answers. You probably already have everything you need to access and use these rounds in your quiz, but you might want to check our requirements page to make sure.
