The six rounds cover deliberately different ground — general knowledge, wordplay and numbers, a map round, a written screen-and-song round, food and everyday life, then a hard decider — so the one person in the room who has seen every film cannot sweep the night on their own. Allow about two hours with teams of four to six, including marking and a single break. Every answer is one word, name, year or number, which means teams can play on any scrap of paper and you can read the whole night off a phone.",[14,25,71,117,166,216,262,315,330],{"h2":15,"paragraphs":16,"questions":24},"The Running Order: Two Hours, Six Rounds, One Page",[17,18,19,20,21,22,23],"Run it in this order and the night paces itself. Round One is easy on purpose, so nobody feels stupid in the first ten minutes. Rounds Two to Five each reward a different kind of knowledge, which is what stops a single strong team running away with it. Round Six is meant to hurt, and it is where the standings actually change. Marking happens twice — once at half-time and once at the end — because marking after every round is the commonest reason a quiz night runs forty minutes long.","| Clock | What happens | Minutes |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| 7:30 | Teams settle, names collected, rules read out once | 10 |\n| 7:40 | Round One — The Warm-Up (10 questions) | 12 |\n| 7:52 | Round Two — Connections, Numbers and Wordplay (10) | 14 |\n| 8:06 | Round Three — The Map Round (11) | 15 |\n| 8:21 | Swap sheets, mark Rounds One to Three, read standings | 8 |\n| 8:29 | Break | 12 |\n| 8:41 | Round Four — Screen and Song (11) | 15 |\n| 8:56 | Round Five — Food, Drink and the Everyday (10) | 12 |\n| 9:08 | Round Six — The Decider (12) | 16 |\n| 9:24 | Mark, tiebreaker if needed, announce the winner | 10 |","**Team size decides more than the questions do.** Four to six is the working range. A pair either happens to contain someone who knows the map round or it does not, so the specialist rounds land unfairly. Above six, the far end of the table stops contributing and starts talking, which is the noise that ruins a quiz for everyone else. Left with an odd number, make one team of seven rather than one of three.","**Pacing.** Read each question twice — once at normal speed, once slowly — then leave about twenty seconds and move on. Do not read it a third time however loudly the corner table asks, because the third reading becomes the expectation and adds fifteen minutes to the night. Longer questions in the map and decider rounds want closer to thirty seconds; the warm-up wants fifteen.","**Scoring, announced once and never changed.** One point per question, no half points, nothing for spelling, nothing deducted for a wrong guess. Teams swap sheets one table to the left so nobody marks their own, and you collect everything at the end to check the totals yourself. Read standings only twice, at half-time and at the end — a leaderboard after every round flattens the drama you are saving for Round Six.","**The joker, if you want one.** Each team may nominate one round to be scored double, declared in writing before that round's first question. It costs you nothing, it makes the break interesting, and it gives a team that bombed the warm-up a reason to stay. Most tables burn it on Round Four and regret it.","**Kit.** Pens, paper, a phone to read from, and nothing else.
