Did You Know? Although Swiss team Versoix completed the 3rd Fil Rouge in a time of 44 seconds, referee Gennaro Olivieri disqualified the team as they had gained an advantage on time because the boy had failed to completely cover the girl with the sack. The team was therefore given the maximum time of 1 minute 30 seconds. This was also the case for Italian team Lizzano in the 4th Fil Rouge. This was a disappointing night for Belgian team Frameries, as this was the team's second appearance in Jeux Sans Frontières (the first being in 1977 at International Heat 2 held at Saint-Vrain, France). On that occasion, the team finished a reputable 3rd position, but this year, the team became the second worst team in the programme's history (at this time) by scoring just 14 points. This equalled Italian team Gubbio's score of 1977 at International Heat 5 held at Windsor, but the team had been saved from disgrace by Swiss team Vallée de Joux which had scored just 13 points earlier this year in International Heat 2.
