Granada did make University Challenge, so at least that one makes more sense. Was the Olympic Game still made at Quay Street?

Unsure to be honest...strikes me as the kind of show that could have also slotted into Studio A at Oxford Road (and the 3sixtymedia tie-up - which led to that being mothballed - was still a few years away)

Maybe being an indie production rather than an in-house BBC Sport commission allowed some leverage for an on-air ticket plug, if indeed it was being recorded at Quay Street.

A little off-topic but the UC team did produce a North West-only 'Schools Challenge' series for Granada with Mark Radcliffe that made use of the UC set and graphics of the time.
