Broadcaster to host community quizzes

Broadcaster and Eggheads host, Jeremy Vine, is to host a series of community quizzes in a bid to raise money for the restoration of Sutton Coldfield Town Hall.

Jeremy (pictured) is well-known for presenting Newsnight, Panorama, Crimewatch, Eggheads and Points of View � as well as the Jeremy Vine Show on BBC Radio 2, and his daily Channel 5 show.

Ahead of his rescheduled live talk at the Town Hall on 24 September, Jeremy was asked to guest host the virtual community quiz following the first successful quiz in April, hosted by The Chase 's Paul Sinha.

The interactive quiz will take place at 8pm on Wednesday 19 May and will be broadcast live to ticket holders on Zoom.

The quiz, run by producers InQuizition, will challenge players to think hard about a range of topics from popular culture to geography, history to science, and everything in between.

Tickets cost £7.50 per device.

Audience members can take part on their own or as a team.

Revenue from tickets will go towards a £5 million major renovation of the charity trust-run Town Hall.

The essential renovation works will secure and restore the Edwardian venue for future generations to use and enjoy.

The Town Hall has been able to continue community and artistic projects through the year to engage local audiences, including these online quizzes with the support of the government 's Culture Recovery Fund.

The quiz will be streamed live from 7:50pm.
