Background

The show was hosted by Hughie Green and co-hosted by Monica Rose, Audrey Graham and Katya Wyeth.

The contestants had to answer questions based on their specialist subject, with every set of answers increasing their prize fund. In the first round, contestants answered questions increasing in value from £1 up to £100 (equivalent to £1,646 in 2021). They then had to answer a special question to qualify for the further rounds.

After the first round questions contained subsequently more parts, so that on the final round the question was a five-part question - all parts had to be answered correctly in each round. The top prize was 21,000 miles of travel and £600 spending money (equivalent to £9,874 in 2021). It was last broadcast on 5 July 1974.^{[citation needed]}
