Your Answer's Rubbish was produced by [[Mark Friend]] and [[Sarah Selby]] during 2007-08. The show was a quiz show based on QI, where teams had to answer questions on the topic of the week. For every point the teams scored they then received a piece of recycled rubbish to use in the Construction round. The Construction round was the final round of the show, where contestants had 3 minutes to produce a model based on that show's theme, using the rubbish they had won during the show, and a pair of scissors, a stick of glue, a roll of sellotape and a pen that were provided for them. The scissors and pen were colour co-ordinated for each team. The winning team was the one that impressed Sarah and Mark most with their model. The scores at the end of the show were irrelevant to who won. If ever Mark and Sarah couldn't agree on a winner, then the show's director was consulted and picked the winner for them. | Your Answer's Rubbish was produced by [[Mark Friend]] and [[Sarah Selby]] during 2007-08.

Your Answer's Rubbish was produced by Mark Friend and Sarah Selby during 2007-08. The show was a quiz show based on QI, where teams had to answer questions on the topic of the week. For every point the teams scored they then received a piece of recycled rubbish to use in the Construction round. The Construction round was the final round of the show, where contestants had 3 minutes to produce a model based on that show's theme, using the rubbish they had won during the show, and a pair of scissors, a stick of glue, a roll of sellotape and a pen that were provided for them. The scissors and pen were colour co-ordinated for each team. The winning team was the one that impressed Sarah and Mark most with their model. The scores at the end of the show were irrelevant to who won. If ever Mark and Sarah couldn't agree on a winner, then the show's director was consulted and picked the winner for them.
