It can be found at http://quizone.tv/ Format The show is set in a type of children's play-room, with tunnels, and slides, which is called "The Zone". There are five rounds, with three teams, 'the yellow team', 'the blue team' and 'the red team', who all compete against each other to win mp3 players and possibly laptops if they make it to the top of the leader board at the end of the series. If a runner doesn't make it to the finish line within the race time of 150 seconds they get sent back to their search room without the chance to play for points at the finish line. At the finish line the referee asks the first runner in line for their answer, if they are wrong the second person in line gets the chance to answer and play for their points, and if they are wrong the third person in line gets the chance to play. Future The future of the show is promising. RTÉ has green lit the subsequent season, which is due to air at 11.00AM and a replay at 3.40PM from 15-19 February 2010. Popularity Quizone has recently found an audience in the 15-25 sector. It is understood that teenagers and young adults view it as a comedy, and find humour in things such as wrong answers, mistakes by children and accidents in the zone.
