The Big Quiz 2025

Egghead's Kevin Ashman to host The Big Quiz 2025
Previously ranked as the world’s number one quizzer, Eggheads ‘Grandmaster’ Kevin Ashman will host this year’s Big Quiz for Wessex Cancer Support.
The annual charity quiz is taking place at Eastleigh’s Concorde Club on Tuesday 30th September.
The Winchester-born quiz champion is taking on the role of quizmaster for the first time, following in the footsteps of Shaun Wallace, Hugh Dennis and Mike Osman, who have previously hosted the event.
Kevin, a six-time winner of the World Quiz Championships, six-time European quiz champion and eleven-time British quiz champion, has – most famously – spent two decades as ‘The Grandmaster’ on hit TV quiz show Eggheads. Kevin said, “I’m very glad to be supporting this wonderful cause and I look forward to seeing everybody on the night.”
The charity’s Head of Community, Events and Partnerships, Lorraine White, said, “Whether it’s a team-bonding exercise with colleagues, an evening with friends or a challenge with your pub quiz team, our quiz night is full of fun, facts and just the right amount of healthy competition. “We’re absolutely thrilled to be joined by Kevin this year. To have the world’s former number one quizzer hosting our event is just fantastic – when it comes to quizzes, it doesn’t get better than him. We’re so grateful to Kevin for giving his time and expertise to ensure our Big Quiz 2025 raises lots of money for local people affected by cancer and is an evening we won’t forget.”
