I was just rumaging around sorting some stuff out, and stumbled across "Trivial Pursuit 1992 The Annual Edition - 1,500 questions and answers from the past year". I looked at some of the questions and had absolutly no idea of most of the answers (some of them were pretty obvious tho)

It's not the normal topics either you have the following:
  • Home Headlines (HH)
  • Glitz 'N' Glamour (GG)
  • International News (INT)
  • Gossip Column (GC)
  • Collected Clippings (CC)
  • All Action (AA)

So picking a card at random, and without resorting to google, wiki et al. who knows the answers to these:

(HH) Who is reported to have refused to vote Tory with the words: Not after what they did to my mother? Answer: Carol Thatcher - Grim... (with a nod to CUS)

(GG)Which Steven Spielberg movie was Prince Harry's first royal premier? Answer: Hook - Grim...

(INT) What vegetable grew in the fields where EuroDisney now stands? Answer: Beetroot- Grim... (with a nod to Pundabaya)

(GC)Which tennis star described Henri Leconte as: A very nice man? Answer: Gabriella Sabatini - Devilman

(CC)What was the name of the band that featured Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson and Willie Nelson? Answer: The Highwaymen - The Rev Owen

(AA)Which boxer's new teacher discovered tat the had the writing and arithmetic skills of an 11-year-old? "] Answer: Mike Tyson's - Pundabaya
