WonderBall

Series 1

Episode 23

Duration: 28 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC ScotlandLatest broadcast: on BBC Scotland HD

Catriona Shearer presents quiz show WonderBall - the game where excellent general knowledge, and a little bit of luck, could win one of the competing teams a £2,000 jackpot.

Three pairs of players are allocated five numbered balls. They take turns to pick a ball at random from a pot and must answer questions correctly to eliminate their opponents’ balls and keep their own balls in play. Because unlike bingo or a lottery, it is the last ball left at the end of the show, the WonderBall, that could win them that jackpot.

In a tantalising twist, teams also have three chances to sell one of their balls for a smaller amount of guaranteed cash. Will they give in to temptation, even though it could cost them the big prize? Or will they hold out in the hope of winning the jackpot, even though they risk leaving with nothing?
