The object of this quiz is to pick a city to start, then name successive UK 1K+ cities such that the next city’s first letter is the last letter of the current city and the next city is as close to the current city as possible. You MUST enter a ‘.’ (period) at the end of the city name to submit it. Cities must be typed out in full, so ‘Newcastle upon Tyne.’ for Newcastle, and so on.

For example, you start with ‘Birmingham’ – you are now trying to name a city starting with ‘M’ (the last letter of ‘Birmingham’) which is closest to Birmingham. If you answer ‘Manchester.’ – now you are trying to name the closest city to Manchester which starts with a ‘R’ and so on.

The quiz ends at the 25th city from the starting one. You get 100 points for naming the closest city on each step, and they decline based on the distance your city was from the closest. You get 15 minutes to complete the quiz.

Note: City naming is more precise than in other quizzes, some simplified alternates may not be accepted.
