Synopsis

Fiendish panel game asking Welsh speaking personalities to think about two things at the same time.

Two teams of two answer questions on a random specialist subject. The first letter of the eight answers in rounds one and three will spell out a ninth, bonus answer.

A one-word clue for the bonus answer is given to the panelists beforehand - something not always easy to remember when the affable Mari is filling time with a friendly chat before starting the round itself.

A head-to-head round against the clock - but minus the bonus answer - fills the gap for round two.
