We visited the filming of the program and talked with its presenter Viktor Loginov and the star team members. The rules of the game are simple: a team of five artists answers tricky questions TV viewers. They only have four minutes to find the answer. And also three tips and 20 thousand rubles at stake for each question. If the stars cannot answer correctly, then the money goes to the author of the question. By answering the questions correctly, the stars accumulate their winnings in the team’s “bank” until some lucky TV viewer hits the jackpot. Maximum win TV viewers amounted to 400 thousand rubles.

“This is the funniest of intelligent and the most intelligent of funny shows! And talk, and laugh, and charge people with positive energy - all this is within our power! - said Victor Loginov. - It’s not even the question itself that is interesting, but the search for the correct answer. When the team begins to put forward versions, a whole symphony plays out, which is very interesting to follow. One of the last questions that pleased me was: why did the Egyptians lose the battle with the Persians? We very quickly came to the correct answer - already on the third player. The Persians carried cats in their hands instead of weapons, and for the Egyptians they were sacred animals. They would rather die themselves than kill a cat. I myself gambler, that's why I don't play. Once I lost a synthesizer worth $2.5 thousand at cards. I was 18 years old at the time, and I was tricked into playing at Sheremetyevo Airport. We went on a business trip to Moscow to buy a synthesizer for the theater. While my supervisor, the head of the radio department, was gone somewhere, they came up to me and, showing wads of dollars, offered to play. I replied that I had no money, and they said to me: “Okay, put your balalaika over there. Dude, you're going to win, for sure." My eyes lit up, I forgot about everything in the world. And of course, he lost. They patted me on the shoulder - nothing happens... Thank God, my boss showed up. While I was thinking about how to save the situation, landing was announced. The boss ran up, grabbed the synthesizer and shouted to me: “Run!” Gamblers yell: “Uh, where?!” I answer that I will catch up with him now and return him. Well, I manage to pass control. This is a life lesson... Fate gave me a slap on the head, but very gently. Since then I know for sure that gambling You can’t play for money.”
Main trio
The main “backbone” of the team is a trio of intellectuals - Andrey Urgant, Olga Shelest and Alexander Pushnoy. Plus, two new participants come to each program.
“The highlight is that you can watch TV and also receive pleasant bonuses for it - ordinary viewers win money! - says Olga Shelest. - And it's not easy entertainment, although we joke and laugh a lot here, it also gives food for thought. Such interesting questions You come across that you are simply amazed. One of the recent questions that surprised me was: what was the name of the ship launched under Peter I, whose motto was “They throw you, but you get up”? We were just scratching our heads until, quite by accident, it came to me - a ball! And this turned out to be the right answer."

One of the guests of the program, Nikolai Valuev, is sure that playing in a team does not imply individualism; it is very important to maintain a team spirit. And, as the game “What?” taught him. Where? When?”, which he periodically plays, the answer, as a rule, always lies in the question.
Passing game
Another participant in the show, Sergei Belogolovtsev, said that although he is a gambling man, he was lucky enough to win only once in his life: “Back in the era of operating casinos, I won $300, and even then with donated chips. Standing next to me was my beloved wife, who took my hand in time and said: “Seryozha, stop! We’re leaving” and did not let me play further, thereby saving the money.”

Andrei Urgant admitted that he has always been a team player: “We play as a team! It would be good to remember this for our football team, which, apparently, they forgot to tell that football is team game. And what a great pleasure it is to play a pass, and not just solo. The same scheme applies to the theater. Good partners inspire, help and support me. Personally, I was delighted by the viewer’s question about trees. It turns out that the Japanese, before starting construction, dig up all the beautiful and useful trees and carefully put them in a special bank. And after construction is completed, these trees are planted in the same place from where they were dug up. I admire their mentality. And in Russia we have vast territories, unprecedented wealth, which we squander in vain, and nature takes revenge on us for this. Our fun and educational programs lead me to such serious topics.”
The authors of the TV show invite everyone to compete with the stars in erudition and send their questions for resourcefulness and ingenuity to the program's address. Questions can be the most different topics: history, literature, music, sports. The main thing is that they are original. All facts must be verified. The number of questions from one participant is not limited; TV viewers can take part in the “Five on One” project until they run out of questions for the players.

The plot of the show Five for One
In the “Five for One” program, viewers of the “Russia 1” channel can turn from observers into participants in an exciting game, and celebrities become their opponents.
Each game features a team consisting of five star participants. They answer questions that the program received from viewers. The stars have 4 minutes to give their answer.

In the first season of the show, the team of stars included: actor Andrei Urgant, TV presenters Olga Shelest and Rita Mitrofanova, showman Alexander Pushnoy, choreographer Evgeniy Papunaishvili and actress Natalya Bochkareva.
Olga Shelest: “The game is very exciting! Real brain work. For example, there was a question about what Marlene Dietrich wanted to do when she arrived in Moscow in 1964. We tried to spin it - yeah, she was meeting with someone, wanted to see someone... and as a result, we agreed to meet. With whom? Let's move on - actor, singer, writer... yes, writer! And then we start going through all the writers!”
