On three separate occasions in Great Britain, this show aired, first in the beginning of2004, once around the end of2005, and once again at the end of 2006 Mark Durden-Smith, Ulrika Jonsson, and Zo Ball serve as the show's co-hosts. St James' Park, Newcastle, hosts the games. Lucerne's Allmend Stadion and St. Gallen's Espenmoos hosted the Swiss version's matches.
