Spotted all the famous faces? See how you did …

1 Sydney Sweeney’s on the bar there, in her denims. Does this mean she is a eugenicist? No, it doesn’t. Are you OK?

2 Look, there’s Liam

3 … and Noel Gallagher. They made a live comeback this year, but they didn’t do a pub quiz with …

4 … a Labubu.

5 Claudia Winkleman is not only really easy to draw, she also presented The Traitors.

6 Having a dog called Krypto is a massive red flag …

7 … unless you are Superman.

8 Keir Starmer had a bad 2025. So it was nice to see him do a jolly 6-7 dance with some school kids in November. He said: Six seeveeen!

9 Timothée Chalamet played Bob Dylan (also 9) in a film. It was lots better than everyone expected.

10 Olivia Rodrigo stole Glastonbury …

11 … and Kendrick Lamar did the Super Bowl. He wasn’t big headed about it, though: he sang a whole song about another rapper!

12 Taylor Swift and …

13Travis Kelce did a podcast to launch Taylor’s happy new album and some people said it wasn’t good but some people said it was.

14 Katy Perry went into space! She sang a song to the other people on the spaceship …

15 … then she shacked up with Justin Trudeau.

16 Luke Littler passed his driving theory test, after he passed his Becoming The Youngest World Darts Champion In History test.

17 Beavers returned to England in 2025, back to build us some dams even though we killed all their relatives back in the day.

18 England won the Euros a second time, thanks to the Lionesses. Here’s Lauren James in the picture.

19 Lastly I want to stress that there was a new pope, but he wasn’t in the pub quiz team that cheated on their smartwatches.

20 I don’t think Nigel Farage was either – but it’s so hard to remember things, isn’t it?
