At the end of each show, the winning \u201chead hunter\u201d must answer nine random trivia questions in just 90 seconds in order to win the jackpot. They can choose to answer the questions alone or head-hunt from the talent pool for help, but they must pay their chosen teammates with cash offers.<\/p>\n<p>Executive produced by Tuesday\u2019s Child Scotland\u2019s Karen Smith, <em>Head Hunters<\/em> will be filmed at BBC Scotland\u2019s Pacific Quay. Keshet International is distributing the series internationally.<\/p>\n<p>Beckett said: \u201cWhen I was first approached about <em>Head Hunters<\/em>, I was slightly worried that it might be a reality-TV hunting show, and I would be shot by an ivory poacher. Luckily for me, it\u2019s a brilliant quiz show that I get to host. It\u2019s my first time hosting a quiz, and I can\u2019t wait to get stuck in. We will definitely have some laughs along the way as our head hunters bid, banter and sometimes offend their opponents in what promises to be an exciting new BBC quiz.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jo Street, BBC commissioning editor, said: \u201cIf knowledge has a price, how much will our head hunters be worth? \u00a315,000? \u00a31,500? Or \u00a31.50? Every episode of <em>Head Hunters<\/em> will be different\u2014some quizzers could be offered huge amounts by each other, some could be offensively small. Either way, <em>Head Hunters<\/em> will deliver BBC One daytime viewers fun and games throughout.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Smith added: \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled that <em>Head Hunters<\/em> is the second commission for Tuesday\u2019s Child Scotland. It\u2019s an exciting quiz with lots of questions and loads of laughs. Rob is the perfect host\u2014there\u2019s plenty for him to get his teeth stuck into.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BBC One daytime has ordered the new quiz show Head Hunters, hosted by Rob Beckett and produced by Tuesday\u2019s Child Scotland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1049,"featured_media":9267,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[227,1987,436,1988,1989],"class_list":["post-9266","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-bbc-one","tag-head-hunters","tag-keshet-international","tag-rob-beckett","tag-tuesdays-child-scotland"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Keshet International\u2019s Head Hunters Lands BBC One Commission - TVEUROPE<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2019\/04\/29\/keshet-internationals-head-hunters-lands-bbc-one-commission\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Keshet International\u2019s Head Hunters Lands BBC One Commission - TVEUROPE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"BBC One daytime has ordered the new quiz show Head Hunters, hosted by Rob Beckett and produced by Tuesday\u2019s Child Scotland.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2019\/04\/29\/keshet-internationals-head-hunters-lands-bbc-one-commission\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVEUROPE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-04-29T14:52:51+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2019-04-29T15:32:16+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/07\/Rob-Beckett-Head-Hunters-Keshet-BBC-One-0419.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"338\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alison Skilton\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Alison Skilton\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2019\/04\/29\/keshet-internationals-head-hunters-lands-bbc-one-commission\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2019\/04\/29\/keshet-internationals-head-hunters-lands-bbc-one-commission\/\",\"name\":\"Keshet International\u2019s Head Hunters Lands BBC One Commission - TVEUROPE\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2019-04-29T14:52:51+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2019-04-29T15:32:16+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#\/schema\/person\/f590d4d1481b8cce2a066e89197c7550\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2019\/04\/29\/keshet-internationals-head-hunters-lands-bbc-one-commission\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2019\/04\/29\/keshet-internationals-head-hunters-lands-bbc-one-commission\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2019\/04\/29\/keshet-internationals-head-hunters-lands-bbc-one-commission\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Keshet International\u2019s Head Hunters Lands BBC One Commission\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/\",\"name\":\"TVEUROPE\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#\/schema\/person\/f590d4d1481b8cce2a066e89197c7550\",\"name\":\"Alison Skilton\",\"description\":\"Alison Skilton is an associate editor of World Screen.
