Once we saw that 10 million people had viewed marble racing on Twitter, we knew we had to act and act fast.
So in a bid to prevent your self-isolation or ‘working from home’ experience from going rapidly downhill, we’ve come up with a giant Glory quiz that will hopefully keep your mind occupied for at least a little while.
Feel free to jump on our Twitter and Facebook pages to let us know how you got on and if you Google the answers, we’ll know…!*
(*disclaimer – obviously we won’t actually know, but as your old Biology teacher used to say, ‘you’re only cheating yourself!’)

Ratings
0-7 – You’ve let yourself down, to be honest. We don’t want to be overly harsh at what is already a difficult time, but sometimes tough love is the answer (but unfortunately for you, not an answer to any of the questions in the quiz…)
8-14 – Adopting a full Liam Gallagher-esque swagger might be a step too far, but you definitely have licence to wear a smug grin after that performance. Loving your work!
15-20 – The cream of the crop! The real deal! We are hugely impressed, slightly alarmed, but mainly impressed. If we had a ceremonial purple anorak to present, we’d be bestowing it upon you right now…
