This children's department production saw two celebrities and some children join Brian Cant in a race through space to reach the moon. All the members of each team were born under the same astrological sign. From write-ups in the ''Radio Times'', it appears that the programme was divided into five rounds, a mixture of general knowledge and sketches, with the team winning the more rounds winning the contest.
