Hit BBC quiz show Eggheads is looking for Belfast and Northern Irish contestants for a new series.

In the show, a team of six take on the resident general knowledge geniuses, or, as they're known around these parts, 'Eggheads'.

If you manage to beat them, you could win a cash prize.

The show was first broadcast in 2003 and dozens have managed to overcome the might of the Eggheads in its twelve year history.

The highest amount won by a team came in 2007 when Oxford Brookes University students, 'Beer Today, Gone Tomorrow' won £75,000.

This will be it's 17th series, and contestants from across the UK are invited to take on the challenge.

The Eggheads won the last 11 episodes of the last series.

The Eggheads themselves have included Kevin Ashman, CJ de Mooi, Daphne Fowler, Chris Hughes, Judith Keppel, Barry Simmons, Pat Gibson, Dave Rainford and Lisa Thiel.
