The work

Quiz Together explored how Sky Glass could support a shared live quiz format across multiple households at once. The experience combined a real host, live participant video, timed questions and on-screen answer reveals, turning the TV into a social game surface rather than a passive broadcast screen.

Delivery detail

  • Prototype for multi-household quiz play built around Sky Glass as the shared living-room screen.
  • Used a real live host to run the session, creating a more event-like experience than a purely automated quiz flow.
  • Combined participant presence, question timing, answer reveal and score feedback in one shared screen layout.
  • Explored how connected TV could support synchronous social play and lightweight audience participation formats.
