Pot the Question - Season 1

When is a quiz not just a quiz? Answer: when there are no rounds, the ingredients are sport and general knowledge, and two teams of sports, showbiz and snooker personalities answer questions while playing a frame of snooker.

The resident captains are Denis Law and Patrick Mower. With Denis in this first programme are George Best, Aiden J. Harvey and Tony Knowles. On Patrick's side are Gareth Hunt, Rachael Heyhoe-Flint, Tony Meo. Stuart Hall will be endeavouring to control this entertaining half-hour with the help of resident referee Len Ganley.

During the next half-hour, you certainly will not see any record-breaking 147s. But, you will see some unusual snooker shots. This lively and entertaining new-style quiz involves showbiz, sports and snooker stars answering questions on sport and general knowledge while playing a frame of snooker.

Resident captains - Denis Law and Patrick Mower-will be cueing off with the help of Donna Hartley, Duggie Brown, Jimmy White, Suzanne Danielle, Steve Smith and John Virgo. Resident referee, Len Ganley, will once again be assisting Stuart Hall to keep things running smoothly.

The third programme in this new quiz series brings together a mixed blend of sports, showbiz and snooker celebrities who, under the guidance of chairman Stuart Hall, answer questions on sport and general knowledge, while playing a frame of snooker.

This evening the emphasis is on little and large - literally! - as Syd Little, Geoff Capes, Shirley Strong and Eddie Large team up with resident captains, Denis Law and Patrick Mower. Two ex-World Champions, Ray Reardon and John Spencer, join in this entertaining 30 minutes, and making sure of fair play is resident referee, Len Ganley.

Anything could happen in the next half hour, as resident captains Denis Law and Patrick Mower are joined by zany comedians, Bernie Winters and David Copperfield, vivacious Tessa Sanderson and dry-witted, Fred Trueman, trying to answer questions on sport and general knowledge during a frame of snooker, played together with two snooker stars.

Ex-World Champion, Terry Griffiths and Willie Thorne will be attempting to pot the balls, while chairman Stuart Hall, aided and abetted by resident referee Len Ganley, will be trying to retain order.

A star-studded cast join resident skippers Denis Law and Patrick Mower - with ex-Manchester United soccer stalwart Steve Coppell, and top vocal artist Vince Hill on Patrick Mower's team. Helping or hindering Denis Law are former Welsh rugby union international ace Barry John, and versatile television actor Dennis Waterman.

The experts on the table are Dennis Taylor and Jim Meadowcroft, and resident referee Len Ganley sees to fair play.

Tonight's programme, the last in the series, goes out with a flourish. Unpredictable snooker star Alex 'Hurricane' Higgins combines with comedian Lennie Bennett and vivacious ex-World Champion Pentathlete Kathy Tayler to make up Patrick Mower's team, while the Crafty Cockney' Eric Bristow, delectable Suzanne Dando and new snooker personality John Parrott complete Denis Law's side.

Len Ganley is referee and Stuart Hall is Questionmaster.
