The Thursday news quiz returns with 15 questions covering topical news, general knowledge, popular culture, and a dash of maths involving goths. This week's quiz touches on stolen saplings, legal happenings, and a missing giraffe—though the giraffe is safely in Rome zoo, as pictured.
Quiz Format and How to Participate
The quiz is published every Thursday. Participants are encouraged to test themselves and share their scores in the comments. If you believe there is an error in a question or answer, you may complain in the comments, provided you show your working and are absolutely certain you are not attempting to factcheck a joke. Alternatively, you can watch Wink Wink by Charli xcx.
This Week's Highlights
Sweltering heatwaves may make quiz-taking a challenge, but the quiz persists. Topics include stolen saplings, legal happenings, and a missing giraffe. The giraffe image, by Francesco Fotia/Shutterstock, shows the animal safely in Rome zoo.
