A quiz based on finding the european champion when the whole game was in English, meaning foreign competitors had an immediate hurdle to clear.

in the last years of the show, so that it was only british contestants who were representing their counties.

I hate that show but I have fond memories of watching it with my grandparents. And the Archimedes-generated graphics were kinda cool for their time.
