About This Program ✦
The programme brings together a quartet of familiar faces – Sally Lindsay, Shaun Williamson, former boxing champion Barry McGuigan and pop‑star Jenny Frost – who step into a quiz‑show setting as a single team. Their collective appearance forms the core of the episode, which is built around a charitable competition. During the show the four contestants answer a series of questions, pooling their knowledge and working together to tackle each challenge. Their combined effort is directed at confronting the quiz genius known as the Chaser, a figure who traditionally tests participants’ limits. By answering correctly they aim to out‑wit the Chaser and progress through the game. The teamwork on display is central to the format; each member contributes his or her own strengths while supporting the others. Their collaborative approach is designed to maximise the chances of success against the Chaser’s expertise, turning individual knowledge into a coordinated strategy. The episode highlights how the group’s dynamic can turn a standard quiz into a joint endeavour. Ultimately, the goal of the challenge is to secure a cash prize that will be donated to charity. The contestants’ combined efforts, their willingness to face the Chaser together and their focus on the charitable outcome drive the narrative of the episode, underscoring the blend of competition and goodwill at its heart.
