Quiz of the Week

on BBC One London

Ned Sherrin looks back at news of the week - with questions designed to test both wits and memories
The William Rushton Trio challenge The Team of Roy Boulting

Quiz of the Week is an attempt to have one's cake and eat it. There are questions about the week; there could be answers; failing an answer there could be a joke; failing a joke there could be an argument; failing an argument there is always another question. The programme hopes, with a minimum of rules or scoreboards, to give two teams of people who are professionals concerned with the events of the week a chance to remember them, react to them, insult or condemn them.
William Rushton's trio, the resident team, acts as a constant in this changing world and ensures a measure of information, a modicum of irrelevance, and a maximum of wit.
