The first of seven programmes.
A movie quiz devised, written and presented by Robin Ray and designed to find the person most knowledgeable about the cinema. This week's contestants are a civil engineer from Inverness, a freelance film technician from London, a trainee legal executive from Enfield and a post office worker from Hoylake, Cheshire.
They each identify a compilation of four films, answer general questions on stars, directors, writers, composers; and choose a specific area of the cinema on which to be more closely tested.
In tonight's programme these areas are: The Films of David Niven ; The Films of Bing Crosby ; Ealing Films; 20th Century-Fox and Cinemascope.
