Quiz Lady follows a pair of sisters: one tightly wound and super smart (that’s Anne) and the other a bit of a mess (Jenny). Their mum goes missing from her care home, and while the sisters are dealing with that, Anne’s dog gets kidnapped. The kidnapper lets Anne know the reason for this: their mum has $80,000 in gambling debts, and if she wants her dog back, she’ll need to provide this in cash.

How are they going to do that? Simple: train Anne up to be a gameshow champion, so she can go on and win the grand prize on her favourite show, Can’t Stop The Quiz. They’ll need to journey cross-country to film the show, training up and getting camera-ready along the way, so there’ll be plenty of laughs and drama in a fresh take on the classic road trip comedy.
