Science Pub Quiz: Picture Round

Over 40 people showed up for last night’s pub quiz in the Royal Institution’s swanky Time & Space bar. I had the pleasure of being microphone jockey for the evening in what proved to be a tough but fun quiz.

The winners, with a highly respectable 42/60 included Nature Networkers Frank Norman, Alf Eaton and Jo Scott, ably backed up by photographer Myk Reeve.

For those who couldn’t make it, here’s the first picture round for you to attempt. Answers in the comments, please.

And the next quiz will be on July 27th at the RI. If anyone would like to help set the questions for the guest round, please get in touch.


“We’ve taken the facial features of three famous scientists of yesteryear and ineptly merged them into one hideous countenance. Name them.”

“Building on our earlier experiment, we lured three living scientists into the Royal Institution’s electroanimation laboratory and created this gurning abomination. Again, name them.”
