In Pursuit of Trivia

by Brian Highley

For 25 years Brian Highley wrote all of those questions for the many UK editions of Trivial Pursuit as well as TV quiz shows and satirical scripts for spitting image. The question he is most often asked during TV and radio interviews is how he got the job writing for Trivial Pursuit. This memoir takes you through the life that perfectly fit him for the most trivial job on earth. There's nostalgia, there's humour and a few tears.
Along the way Brian gives Elton John his first major gig at a festival that left Elton a superstar and Brian a bankrupt. We rub shoulders with lots more rock stars, TV and movie celebrities, top politicians and even royalty.
