Trainee Georgia wins the newsquiz fizz

The MailOnline trainees have been working remotely all week. They have written breaking news stories, created banners in real time, completed personality profiles and had detailed legal and IPSO training. They had a WhatsApp Q&A with head of social media Chris Lawrence. They had stories published too. Joe Davies wrote a story about the UK's youngest flying instructor who, at 19, can't drive a car. You can read it here. 

He also interviewed a 19-year-old mother who woke from a coma to find her unborn baby and boyfriend had been killed. The story is here.

Georgia Simcox interviewed a counsellor at Relate who gave tips for families having to deal with students forced to return home and living on lockdown. Read it here.

The trainees would normally now be off on their placements but most of these have been cancelled. Instead they will be attached to the Mail newsrooms in London, Glasgow and Dublin but working from home.
I wish them well. They are a very bright and enthusiastic bunch who have remained engaged during a tough time. They will come through it stronger. 

We finished, as usual, with the newsquiz. The highest scorer this week was Georgia with a score of 19. Second were Lydia Catling and Sam Baker who both scored 17. Georgia was also top scorer over the four week-course and, when things return to normal, will collect the champagne. The highest online scorer in last week's newsquiz was Toby Brown with 21, just ahead of Sam Neve and Liz Gerrard on 20. The top team was Adam Batstone and Lucy Thorpe with 20.5, ahead of the Penmans on 19.5 and Bruce and Sarah Hayward on 18. Here is this week's quiz. Give it a go and see if you can beat Georgia's score.
