| South Shields | Entertainment based quiz, with the first round being either 10 questions; or 10 music clips(contestants have a list of 12 to choose from); or 10 anagrams(themed); or 10 "letters missing" (where only the vowels are present) the second round is 10 questions, each of two parts, in which either the question or the answers are very loosely connected. There is a picture round consisting of 20 photo's and not only do the points count towards a team's total, but any team getting all 20 right wins the cash "snowball" (which increases by £5 a week-as of 27.06.05 is at £60) Round three consists of eight topics, with 5 questions per topic, with teams picking two topics as their bonus rounds (if they get all 5 right in these 2 rounds,then their points are doubled to 10)-this can often be a deciding factor in who wins. Entry to the quiz is £1 per team member, with cash prizes, beer tokens etc. up for grabs. Between rounds there are also 50p a guess games, where anyone can have a go (at 50p per guess), and these questions will always involve a number, whether it be a year; monetary: a distance or whatever. The main emphasis though, is on the fun aspect of the whole quiz!!! | |
