Hosted by Rob Beckett, Head Hunters is a quiz show that puts a price on knowledge. A talent pool of 20 quizzers compete to become Head Hunters. Can they see off the competition and win the rolling jackpot alone? Or will they need to recruit some help? 

Today’s head hunters are retired financial consultant Gerard, four-time Head Hunters competitor Dubem, and physics student Rishi. With subjects as diverse as the royal family and TV soaps, the head hunters need to think tactically to give them the best shot at beating the board.
