Synopsis
Very popular team quiz featuring clubs and organisations from across the North of Scotland taking part in an annual knockout tournament to find the Grampian region's Top Club of whatever year it was.
The show was later shown in the neighbouring Scottish region after STV brought the company, which proved to be its downfall as the Glaswegian owners started to cut the Aberdeen station down to size around this time.
