Music quiz in which contestants try to recognise as many hit songs and artists as possible, under intense pressure.

Ken Bruce brings the formidable quiz to our tellies, as he challenges music fans to recall chart-topping facts and stats in a battle to become PopMaster TV champion

Chaired by Joseph Cooper, Face the Music took the form of a quiz, with a panel of three music-loving celebrities, but without scoring or a winner. Each week, there would be a special guest, who would also have to answer questions – with the focus being on topics that related to the guest's life and career, so as to lead to amusing anecdotes. The questions to the panel were asked in a series of rounds, each with a theme, such as "The Face, The Music", where the panel would have to identify a composer from their picture, as well as the composer of the music played along with it.
