The Gordon District Friends Of CHAS organised the quiz, which raised a fantastic £1100 through sponsorship, raffle sales and team entries.

CHAS is a registered charity that provides Scotland's only hospice services for children and young people with life-shortening conditions

16 teams battled it out on the night, but in the end it was The Banned Old Duke Of York - made up of Ian Bain, Ailsa Merchant, Anne Thomson and Eric Thomson - who walked away with the top prize.

The winning team.
