What happens

Visquiz is an Australian television quiz show hosted by Mark Bonelli and first broadcast on SBS in 1985–86. Each episode features three contestants who are Year 11 students with multicultural backgrounds drawn from schools around Australia. Questions are on current events and general knowledge and are answered on a computer. The show featured a computer character called Go To but in early episodes it was difficult to understand. Prizes included computers, encyclopedias and atlases. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
