In the UK Trivia quizzes are nothing new, they've have been part of popular entertainment for many years...so we don't need the explanation. Nearly every pub has a quiz night at least once a week, so it's very run-of-the-mill stuff for us. They're good fun! I think they started here about 30 years ago and are still very popular.
I couldn't understand how winning a quiz could be such a big thing, until someone explained it's a new phenomena in the US.

It's all just trivia to us!
