The sports quiz that makes A Question of Sport look like Mastermind, the brilliantly bonkers A League of Their Own is celebrating its 15th series.

The panel show, in which the red and blue teams answer questions, attempt crazy challenges and relentlessly take the mickey out of each other, kicked off back in 2010, with James Corden hosting and Freddie Flintoff and Jamie Redknapp as team captains.
