In the 1991–2 season, the best score of the 16 weeks for which we have figures was 6.11,
scored by the Chestergate, YPU and Weavers (in Week 12). (In this season, one
team was responsible for setting the Specialist questions, one for setting the General Knowledge, and a third team was responsible
for "organising" the complete set. Only one mark was given by each team to the complete set.)

Week 18.
Runners–Up
In 2018–19, the Ox–fford's two sets finished in first and second places. Previously the
Park Timers had made second place their own, and if for no other reason it seemed worthwhile to give an
honourable mention to each year's runners–up.
The Ox–fford had finished in the top two places once before – in 2006–7 – and the only other team to have done
this in the Cars & Vans 4U era is the New Castle (now known as the Park Taverners), in 2010–11.
(The Crown Prince / Principals did it twice in the Sema era – in 2003–4 and 2005–6.)
