Love this book. It is a bit more challenging than the last one.
If you’ve been asked to put together a quiz for your team at work or a family quiz over the festive period, just get this book. All the work has been done for you. Or it’s perfect for a Secret Santa gift or stocking filler.
It is funny, clever and has that familiar Very British warmth underpinning it all, just as we’ve come to expect from the genius that is Rob Temple.

Absolutely love this new VBP. It’s so funny and clever as always. I have all the VBP books on my shelf! Ordered a few more as Xmas gifts and will use it for a Christmas family game!

One of the best ways to really become part of the culture is to learn the humor. As an American living in the UK now, these books are brilliant. Shame mine wasn’t printed upside down as well, that would have been a collectors item to get autographed 🙂
