The Twelve Quizzes of Christmas Résumé

The Twelve Quizzes of Christmas Frank Paul

What do these people share in common, Anne Boleyn, Harry Bailey, Ira Gershwin and Peppa Pig?

Legendary quizmaster Frank Paul invites us into our favourite Christmas stories - with a twist.

Try to outwit a cold-blooded child genius in his empty home, save Christmas from the vengeful monster Grod, and enjoy the cheesy romance of Love Factually. From conundrums told entirely in Seussian verse to Die Hard-inspired riddles, Frank's puzzles offer an anti-social alternative to all the revelry.

All you need for Christmas is Frank!
