Each week, the world generates more events than any one person can hold — crises averted, icons stepping back, spectacles assembled and dissolved. The BBC's weekly news quiz offers a quiet reckoning: a chance to measure what we absorbed from the torrent and what slipped past us unnoticed. From a WHO clarification on hantavirus to Dolly Parton's cancelled residency to the pageantry of celebrity television, the stories of this particular week remind us that attention itself is a form of participation in public life.
