We won’t be returning to our local for a little while, so let the pub quiz fun come to you. Join us as we celebrate dads everywhere and raise funds for life-saving research with the biggest, most star-studded virtual pub quiz in Britain.

Last week we announced prostate cancer is now the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the UK. This huge milestone arrives at a time when research has stalled because of social-distancing measures, and our flagship events have been postponed due to the Covid-19 crisis. When men need us more than ever, we face unprecedented challenges, and we're facing them head-on.

And we haven’t let lockdown stop us, have we? Since the beginning of April our highlight of the week has been The Staying Inn Quiz, with hundreds of you joining us on Facebook live to test your knowledge on everything and anything, from ice caps to international caps. 

Introducing... The Staying Inn Quiz: Father’s Day Edition

Next week we're going big, with a star-studded line-up of quiz masters and hopefully the most-packed out virtual pub you've ever set foot in.

Leading the evening's proceedings will be none other than former BBC Breakfast presenter, BILL TURNBULL. He’ll get by with a little help from his celebrity friends.

  • National treasure STEPHEN FRY will find out if you know your history.
  • The ‘unbelievable’ JEFF STELLING will be challenging you on everything sports.
  • Actress GEMMA OATEN will ask who's who and what's what in the world of television and film.
  • Eastenders’ DAVOOD GHADAMI will lead a picture round.
  • Masterchef supremo GREGG WALLACE will serve up a delicious round on food and drink.
