The series has had two major "face lifts". The first in January 2000 substituted host Søren Kaster for Lasse Rimmer, changed the production design and exchanged the original Bent Fabricius-Bjerre theme composition with a more modern one. In December 2003 Lasse Rimmer gave way for Lars Daneskov and a new production design, and the old Fabricius-Bjerre theme returned in an updated version.
The first episode of the series was taped on 5 May 1995 and aired on 18 June 1995. The first-ever final answer and question were: "Word from Spanish for a large fleet of navy crafts." "What is armada?" The name of the first winner was Lars Westensøe.
