This pub quiz handout round features 15 cryptic crossword style clues to be deciphered to give the names of 15 well known TV sitcoms. For example, the correct answer to the clue "remove male sheep from new dire program” would be Porridge, because if you remove “ram” (i.e. a male sheep) from “dire program”, this gives “dire prog” and if you arrange these letters in a new way, you can spell “Porridge”.
A few of these cryptic clues are fairly straightforward to get teams up and running, but there are also some that are likely to take a great deal of puzzling over before teams arrive at the correct answer, so this round should keep teams entertained for a while.
It is recommended that these cryptic clues are used in a quiz as a handout round. For more information on handout rounds and our recommended use for them in quizzes click here
