Two local pubs battle it out in a general knowledge contest, with prizes including an FA Cup-style trophy and tankards. Notable for the rather overstaffed teams of five on both sides, and rather too many fleece jackets for our liking.

:This was a sports quiz between sides representing one pub from each county of the TVS area. Its format was modelled on that of the then-popular ''Sunday People'' national pub sports quiz. ''Inn Quiz'' was hosted by Dave Lanning, and won by a team representing The Plasterers Arms in Reading.

Synopsis

Two local pubs battle it out in a sporting knowledge contest, with prizes including an FA Cup-style trophy and tankards. Notable for the rather overstaffed teams of five on both sides, and rather too many fleece jackets for our liking.

Keith Walmsley tells us:

This was a sports quiz between sides representing one pub from each county of the TVS area. Its format was modelled on that of the then-popular Sunday People national pub sports quiz. Inn Quiz was hosted by Dave Lanning, and won by a team representing The Plasterers Arms in Reading. Definitely five-a-side, and definitely tankards for the winners, but I can't say I remember the fleece jackets, or an FA Cup-style trophy!
For what it's worth, the members of the winning team were Mark Balchin, Graham Edge, Roy Bennett, Dave North, and yours truly. I have a videotape somewhere which, if it still works, has recordings of all the shows.
