Talk:Passport Quiz

Additional Details
Bryan Burnett who was the was the Co-host of Scottish Passport,( scottish version of wish you were here for glasgow people) which started in 1994.

In 1998 Burnett come up with the idea for passport quiz, where 3 pairs of contestants would use there knowledge of world geography in answering questions to gain passport miles and win spot prizes, during the rounds

There were 3 rounds:

Round one: one person from each pair buzz's in to the questions but not confere the answer.

Round two: Each pair would watch a short video, and then had to answer 3 questions about the place/video there just watched, one of the q was where was place in the video.

Round 3: Bagain Holiday: Each pair get told a hoilday which could be brough that week in travel agents and there had to guess the right price out of choice of three.

round 4: look at the passport pic of the contestants, this was moved to before round one in later series, there also talk about there holidays etc Then after that there all watch a short video and once again people have to buzz in to the questions about it

Round 5, just like round one but with the other person doing the buzzing- but its double points if you get a wrong asnwer you get frozen out. 90 secs long

End game, to get the holiday, you have to get uncover the 9 squares one person tells there other partner - has to describe 9 different words related to holiday on a piece of card. But you get square one and two for free. so in fact the other person just has to get 7 answers

There was 5 series from 98 - 03 broadcast on both STV and Grampain from 26 February 1998 – 2003, with over 150 episode made.
