Broadcast

BBC 2, 25th March & 1st April 1986, 10th September to 22nd October 1987 (9 programmes in 2 series)

Synopsis

Pro-celebrity clay pigeon shooting, with golden era Mike Smith, Ian Botham and Suzi Quatro among the guests.

As was all the rage at the time, this BBC-broadcast competition had commercial sponsorship at the time. The 1986 champs took place at Hever Castle for the Budweiser Trophy (with a mens and womens event each). The more substantial series in 1987 was at the Littlecote Manor, Berks competition and was sponsored by Daihatsu.

Trivia

The second series was broadcast less than a month after the Hungerford massacre.
