Pegg's pub quiz comedy isn't happening

Simon Pegg has denied reports he’s working on a new comedy set around a pub quiz team.

La Triviata was an idea he and collaborator Nick Frost contemplated several years ago, following their own experiences with a team called QWA - Quizzas With Attitude.

However, the pair have since moved on to making films, and the TV idea has been put on ice, his management company said today.

Speculation about the show was fuelled yesterday when The Sun reported him talking about the show at a Penelope Cruz premiere in London. However, his spokesman said Pegg was not even at the event.
