Synopsis

Three series in Channel 4's schools' programming block teaching French, German and Spanish through a game show format, and conducted entirely in the particular tongue. The two teams were each made up of a native speaker and a British learner, and games included a quiz about France / Germany / Spain, a conveyor belt memory game (as per The Generation Game), matching photos to their captions, and various physical games involving following instructions in the foreign tongue, one of which was usually a copy-the-chef cookery challenge.
