Synopsis
Panel game looking at events "on this day in history".
It's the format we might expect - rounds about television, music, and the news, plus questions about people for whom this was a special day in previous years. The show ended with a quickfire buzzer round.
Questions were mostly about the recent past, the past 30 years or so. Nominally, questions assigned to the panelists - they worked in two pairs - with bonus marks handed out quite liberally.
An entertaining and fast-paced show, where the aim was to entertain and reminisce through the form of quiz.
