Notes

a. ^ From episode 12 onwards a small trophy with a plaque saying "Winner: Trivia Competition" replaced the different prizes that were awarded in each episode. A new trophy parodying the Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima was used starting from the first episode of the second series.

b. ^ The series finale featured the contestants and the host dressed up in costume as people related to their generation era. Shaun dressed as Robert Smith, Amanda as Marilyn Monroe, Kerri-Anne as Krystle Carrington, Charlie as Marty McFly, Wil as "Doc" Emmett Brown, Josh Thomas as Gerard Way and Josh Lawson as Harry Potter.

c. ^ This episode was a Christmas Special, with Christmas-themed questions. An extended version was aired on Christmas Eve, 24 December 2009.
