    So, if you could pick any 5 people to form an Irish 'Eggheads' quiz team, who would you pick.? ('yore ma' isnt a viable option..)

    My top 5 would be Ryan Tubridy as an expert for politics and history..
    Vincent Browne, Brian Kennedy & Paul Martin just to see what would happen, and Jonathan Rhys Meyers for eye candy..

    Last table quiz I went to, a guy on my team got drunk and start heckling the quizmaster. So, him.

    About as much as the OP knows about putting a successful quiz team together.
