Story and premise

Hosted by Jeremy Vine, Make Me an Egghead is a nationwide search to find two contestants (one male and one female) who are knowledgeable enough to join the Eggheads, the UK's most fearsome quiz team.

In Make Me an Egghead, each contestant is asked up to three multiple-choice questions on subjects such as sport, film and TV, music, food and drink, arts and books, politics, history, geography or science.

The winner of each round gets to choose an Egghead to assist them in the final general knowledge round. The more rounds a player wins, the more Eggheads they have to call upon for assistance in the final round.
