Auction and raffle at popular event boost total; Aykroyd & Sons walk away with the trophy.
Last night’s popular Northern Light Fund Quiz Night raised over £12,000 for the industry charity.
The total was boosted by a successful auction – ably hosted by David Aykroyd – which included signed football shirts from Manchester United, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and England, as well as tickets to see the semi-final of The Voice, and raised some £2,000.
The traditional raffle further bolstered the funds going to the charity.
The team from Aykroyd & Sons came away victorious – with a total of 89 points. Meanwhile, at the other end of the table, the team from TDP – 60% of the time, we win every time – had the dubious honour of claiming the ‘big pants’ with a score of 58.
The event was held at Hotel Football in Manchester with teams from companies including Nickelodeon, Manchester United, RMS International, Character Options, Imagine8, GB eye, Max Publishing, Rainbow Productions, BBC Worldwide, Sanrio, Bulldog Licensing, Fashion UK, William Lamb, ITV, McGarrie Vahey & Partners, DNC, Aardvark Swift, Amscan, Cooneen, Cartoon Network, Barclays, Kuit & Mazar, TDP, Karen Addison Associates and H&A all taking part.
