It'll be a thousand quid before Christmas

Marc F

With 11 weeks until Christmas, I'm predicting another generous jackpot before the big day. Already up to £286 for next week's top prize (it was won last week), you'd better book ahead as we were standing room only for the second week running. Remember all the takings roll over to the next week with the odds of winning increasing each week it's not won.

A bit like the British winner of the Euromillions record jackpot of £171,221,036, the Devonshire prize pot will set you up for life... well, at least for a couple of week's drinking in the pub itself or a Michelin star cocktail.

Sounds of Fatness continued a fine run this year, adding to their clutch of victories. They edged out a team with a birthday boy who went home with the wine and a bonus drink. The cake looked delicious but was not shared. This quiz master can't be bribed.

A good showing all round for the rest of the Devonshire trivia crowd in what is probably Balham's greatest pub quiz. See you next week and don't forget to book ahead.
