Synopsis

One of Westcountry's first regional programmes - a Friday night inter-town quiz tournament, which lasted only a single series, amid the cold reception by South West viewers after seeing TSW lose its franchise.

Typical rounds were based on origins of place names, local personalities, artefacts and the teams' home towns among other things.

The overall winners got a cut glass bowl from Westcountry's chairman.

Champions

Bodmin
