50/50 (British game show)

50/50 is a British children's television game show for BBC television. It was first broadcast on 7 April 1997 and ended its run on 12 July 2005 after 9 series. Repeats aired on BBC One, BBC Two and the CBBC channel until 2009.

Format
The contestants were also the studio audience and sat in raised seating on opposite sides of the studio. The two schools competing were originally represented by the T-shirt colours orange and green before they changed to blue and yellow for the rest of the show's run from the second series in 1998. The contestant numbers were randomly selected, each used once only, for both teams (occasionally one team only) and announced and displayed by a large-screened computer named 'Flynn'. The physical games usually consisted of inflatable obstacle courses, similar to those found in other children's game shows such as Get Your Own Back, Fun House, Run the Risk and Pump It Up. Quiz rounds also featured, as well as an observational round featuring a pop music video in which all contestants played by voting 'true' or 'false' on keypads. The winning team won a prize for their school, and in later series a glass trophy. ==Transmissions==
