What is Masterteam about?
Masterteam was a BBC television and radio quiz show, devised by the team which made Mastermind. The show was devised by Dave Ross at the BBC Quiz Unit. The television show was originally broadcast on BBC One for three series between 21 October 1985 and 20 December 1987 and was presented by Angela Rippon. The programme lasted for half an hour. Each series lasted for nine weeks comprising a total of 45 shows encompassing 135 shows in total. Two teams of three players from the same geographical area played 5 rounds in the following order; Team Challenge, In The Spotlight, In A Spin, In The Spotlight, Team Challenge. The Team Challenge round was questions on the buzzer and lasted for 60 seconds with two points for a correct answer. An incorrect answer from an interrupted question gave one point to the opposing team and allowed them to answer the question in full for the second point. The team that led at the end of round were allowed to pick a member of the opposing team to answer questions on their chosen subject from a selection of six in Round 2 called In The Spotlight. Again two points for a correct answer. The other team then returned the favour. The third round lasted 30 seconds and was called In A Spin where the computer selected three letters at random from which the teams had to make the longest word they could with the letters in the same order within the word. The longest word gained 5 points for the team. The fourth round was the same as the second with the person who answered questions in Round 2 excluded. The final round was the same as the first. The series reflects a distinct GB style and perspective.
