 Three pairs
of contestants from the general public, an amateur dart player and his or
her team partner (known as the brains) compete against each another
combining their skills at throwing darts at targets to win money and the
opportunity for their partner (the brains) to answer a general knowledge
question and, if answered correctly, win more money for the
team. The
'brains' of each team selects a category from one of the ten categories on
the category board for their partner to throw a single dart at. The Bullseye being worth £200 in all of the categories, the rest of
each category on the board is divided into three different values, £100, £50 and £30. The first questions in round one was worth £30 for a correct answer, added to
whatever
their dart playing partner scored in points. A possible £230 pounds if the dart player
hit the 'Bullseye' in the category chosen by his/her partner. The second question in this
round was worth £50 for a correct answer. The third and final question in this round was
worth £100 for a correct answer. Once a category has gone, that category drops out of the
round. If the dart player missed the category chosen by his/her partner and landed in a
category that had dropped out of the game, they lost the chance to answer a question in
that round. If the 'brains' of the team selected a category and his/her partner missed the
category and landed in a category that was still in the game, the 'brains' of the team is
asked a question in this category. If the 'brains' did not know the answer or gave an
incorrect answer, one of the two other competing team 'brains' could answer the question
and if correct win bonus pounds. At the end of this round The Host
would state the scores
of all three teams and then move on to Round Two. |

 Round Two is
the Pounds for Points round. Each dart player competes in three rounds of darts against
one another. At the end of each round the dart player with the highest score wins the
right for his/her partner to answer a general knowledge question. The value of the
question in pounds is that scored by his/her dart-playing partner. For example, the dart
player scores 97 using three darts. The brains of the team is then asked a general
knowledge question and the value of that question is £97. At the end of Round Two, the
two teams of contestants with the lowest scores leave the show taking with them the amount
of money they won and a bendy bully, a tankard and set of Bullseye Darts. The team with
the highest score would continue on to Part Two of Bullseye. The Host would then close
part one and go to the commercial break.
