| Season chronology | |
The 23rd season of the international television game show Jeux sans frontières was held in the summer of 1992. Broadcasters from Czechoslovakia, France, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Tunisia, and Wales participated in the competition coordinated by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). The different heats were hosted by some of the paticipant broadcasters in locations in their countries such as Casale Monferrato (Italy), Lisbon (Portugal), Alfortville (France), Swansea (Wales), and Třebíč and Rožnov pod Radhoštěm (Czechoslovakia). The grand final was held in Ponta Delgada (Portugal).[1] The head international referee in charge of supervising the competition was Denis Pettiaux.
For each heat, each broadcaster sent a mixed team of twelve members (six men and six women) from a city or town from its country that competed against each other in a series of games –funny physical games played in outlandish costumes, though none-the-less technically difficult– themed in the specific topic of the episode. After the ten heats, the most successful team from each country competed in the grand final. Each of the episodes was presented by the host broadcaster in its own language. Each of the participating broadcasters had their own presenters who did some on-site presentations for their audience and commented on the competition in their language. Due the complexity of the production, and that each broadcaster had its own personalized coverage, the episodes were filmed first and each broadcaster broadcast them at their convenience later.[2]
The season of was won by the team from Třebíč in the then Czechoslovakia, being the runner-up the team from Breuil-Cervinia, Italy. This was the first and only season in which Tunisia performed in the competition. They were the only African country in the show and they were not very successful, as they were most of the time finished in the lower half of the table, only archiving a second place in Heat 9, thanks to Nabeul, who qualified to the Final with it, but finished last there.[3]
