Little bit of trivia about the show.
You may wonder why Stephen Fry is the host, and Alan Davies is always on one team, but there is no regular on the other team.
The original plan was to have a "bright" team (with Stephen Fry as captain) and a "dim" team (with Alan Davies as captain).
They wanted the host to be Michael Pailin (clever but funny).
Michael did not want to do the show, and when they came to record the pilot show they still did not have a host so Stephen Fry "sat in", and the rest is history.
You can see the pilot show on the series ONE DVD box set (it is AWFUL)
