We got bored and had a spring clean at the Thursday quiz as it fast approaches its second glorious year, so you may find some of the regular features slightly rearranged. The premise is the same – 15 questions that are either general knowledge or vaguely topical from the news, with some jokes and sarcasm mixed in. Your task is to get as many of them right as possible, then brag about it in the comments. There is a bonus point if you can spot a hidden Doctor Who reference in one of the wrong answer options – but there are no prizes, it is just for fun.

The Thursday quiz, No 51
