As coronavirus lockdown comes into play again, quizzes on Zoom seem to be the best way to keep in touch with family and friends. While we've been dabbling in virtual drinking games and playing the occasional 'truth or dare' over video call, general knowledge quizzes tend to be the top priority.

It might feel like you've exhausted all of your quiz taking capabilities, but grab a drink, put on a smile and round up all of the family on Zoom. It's not quite the same as heading down to the pub for a roast and choosing a silly team name, but it will have to suffice for now.

Despite lockdown easing in the summer, where we were allowed to socially distance and meet up with a certain number of people from different households, the chances are there were still people you weren't able to see. And, y'know, what with lockdown 2.0 coming into play at the beginning of November, there might be some people you haven't been able to see all year, which is why virtual check-ins are so important (even if you're sick of them.)

So if you're not looking for easy questions or hard questions, but rather just a quiz that's guaranteed to be family friendly and get everyone in the call involved, look no further. Here are 25 of the best questions for your next family quiz - which won't leave anyone out! Think classic movies, easy Geography and some Royal trivia knowledge.
