    After the recent kerfuffle over what constitutes the first line of a play, the Thursday quiz has decided to avoid theatre altogether and focus instead on its core principles: sowing mischief, mayhem and mild confusion. Take your seats, silence your mobile phones and prepare for 15 questions of topical tomfoolery – and a couple of cute-looking dogs. There are no prizes, but we love it when you tell us how you got on in the comments. Allons-y!

    The Thursday news quiz: No 225

    It's come early... wish it hadn't. 5. I overthought three guesses...

    Calling 10 a good score

    Enjoy

    Guardian Sports: You got...6/15 That's a great score.

    Poor start left me floundering, but finished with a flourish to spare my blushes.
