Matchpoint

Matchpoint was a daytime game show based on tennis and aired on BBC1 for one series in 1990, the programme was hosted by Angela Rippon.

On each edition, two teams of two contestants compete for a place in the quarterfinals by answering questions. For each correct answer they would score the points as in a tennis match e.g. 15,30,40,Game. Each programme was played by the best of 3 'Sets' and the team who won 2 sets won the show and moved onto the quarterfinals while the losing team went away with a bottle of champagne and a punnet of strawberries.

The prize for the winning team at the end was a trip to that year's Wimbledon event.
