The BBC is set to film a brand new daytime quiz show in Northern Ireland later this month.
The Finish Line is a competitive show that will see contestants battle it out on an iconic racetrack set, as they speed along the studio floor in a series of thrilling quick-fire, quiz races - and all that matters is they cross the finish line.
Made and filmed in Belfast, by Potato (part of ITV Studios) and Nice One Productions, filming will start later this month in Belfast and applications for contestants are still open until March 10.

Chris Jones, Founder of Nice One Productions, commented: "We love working with BBC Daytime and this new series partnership with Michael and Adam in Potato is brilliant news for us and the growing quiz talent base in Northern Ireland."
BBC Daytime commissioning editor Alex McLeod said: "I am so excited that we are bringing a brand new quiz format to the schedule.
"This new show will be packed full of excitement, anticipation and will have audiences on the edge of their seats – and we’re chomping at the bit to announce who the hosts will be!"
Michael Kelpie, MD of Potato and Executive Producer, added: " It’s such an exciting time for the team behind The Finish Line , and we’re very much looking forward to working closely with the BBC over the coming months as we continue to expand our slate of premium quiz show formats.”
