BATTLE OF THE BOOZERS - The Rules!

Your spokesperson and team must be available from midday until 2pm.

You should have the radio on so that your team can hear the questions - but it must be at a low level or we will have problems with feedback. Do not listen via the internet, as there is a delay in on-line broadcasting.

• You will have ninety seconds in which to answer fifteen questions. If you wish to pass, just say "pass" and we will return to the question, if there is time, once all fifteen have been asked. Passed questions may be asked in any order.
• Answers will be accepted ONLY from the pub's spokesperson (the person on the telephone). Answers shouted out in the background will not be accepted.
• The first answer given by the spokesperson is the only answer that will be accepted, no matter how quickly an alternative answer is given.
• All rounds will be recorded in the studio and the recording will be referred to in the event of any query.
• Questions will be a mix of general knowledge, local knowledge, music, trivia, current affairs, entertainment, geography, history and literature.
• Each week both sets of questions will be tested on an independent adjudicator to ensure that both participating pubs have a fair and equal chance.
• In the event of a draw, the pub with the least number of passed questions will be declared the winner. In the event of a dead heat we will ask a tie-break question. The first pub to answer correctly will score the deciding point.
