Biggest moments/events in 2010

dr2012

I'm doing a quiz for New Years Eve and I want it to be all about 2010 and what has happened during the year.

But I need a little help, what are the biggest events/moments in your opinion that have happened during the year that I could ask questions about.

I'd really appreciate any help with this :smile:

Avatar's huge success at the cinema. There was a huge ash cloud over the country for a couple of days. Big Brother got sacked. A coalition government came into power. We found out that Matt Cardle has got the X Factor and the England football team has got the **** Factor. :fatcontroller:

The volcano Ejafajallajokul erupted! (I think thats how it spelt, I did know for my geography exam in summer but it never even came up in the exam paper). Try and get people to name it or if you're feeling evil, spell it!!

The Chilean miners.

For a possible sports round, you could mention Rooney wanting to leave Man United then changing his mind in the space of a week.

EDIT: Sorry pissy Man United fans (who I am one of), I only stated the truth about the Rooney situation. Unless the neg was from someone who is offended by the mention of foreign people who work underground.
