Nice that they made the final board questions easy in the last episode, I suppose they had to go out with a win, otherwise an enjoyable quiz show although I think they could have changed contestants more often, hope there will be a second series.

Excellent layout of the with the various categories that remain the same through the show. Also, it is enticing that the contestants remain the same until one of the team leaders wins which is good in that it keeps you wanting to watch!
Best Quiz show from BBC for a long time. Brilliant!

Love this show. It should be on BBC prime time. Presenter Rob Beckett is so natural and great with the contestants. This deserves to replace the likes of Pointless. The fact you get to know the contestants is great. The question format is good and bidding for your fellow guests is always entertaining. I was hooked on this show and really made my day as far as quizzes are concerned. A quiz show that keeps you involved throughout. Best quiz show for a long while. Hope there's more to come.
I'm addicted to this show

Warning: Spoilers
After watching the first episode of this new afternoon game show I wasn't very impressed. The game play seemed convoluted, at times confusing and comedian Rob Beckett hardly sparkled as the host and is a little slow at reading the questions - which is a hindrance in the finale.
However, after watching several further episodes I began to warm to it more and more. The range of question categories is far broader than in many quiz shows and within a category contestants can be asked some unexpected questions. The difficultly level of the questions is varied but overall this has to be one of the more difficult daytime quizzes to win that I have seen recently. When the prize money is won it actually feels like an achievement - which is not true of all game shows.
Head Hunters could do with a few tweaks here and there and I am still unsure if Beckett is the ideal presenter for this format but I would quite like to see this return for further series.
