The programme was started and hosted by Erik Bye, while Stein Roger Bull and John Andreassen were project manager and director, respectively.[2] The programme was aired on Saturday evening, and consisted of dialogues, music, reportages, and more.[2] Rolf Just Nilsen was responsible for the music.[3]

Many celebrities were invited to the programme, among them actress Britt Langlie and the Nobel Peace Prize laureate Linus Pauling.[2] The programme did face various criticisms. Some of the critics argued that a television programme with a such high degree of political content ought not to be aired on a Saturday evening.[4] The programme was also subject of debate in the Norwegian Parliament.[5]
