Last week, after more than 30 years at the BBC, Ken Bruce departed Radio 2, prompting the BBC to introduce its brand new weekday morning music quiz, Ten to the Top. Bruce had planned to join Simon Mayo at Greatest Hits Radio, but ended up departing earlier than expected. To replace PopMaster, which Bruce had intended to take with him, Radio 2 created Ten to the Top and has now released more information about the quiz. Vernon Kay will be taking over Bruce’s role in May and Gary Davies will be presenting the quiz until then. The quiz requires contestants to answer 10 questions correctly, with each question being worth more points than the last. A joker is available for each contestant, which will double their points.

Last week, after over 30 years at the BBC, Ken Bruce departed Radio 2 and the BBC introduced a new weekday morning music quiz, Ten to the Top, in his stead. Initially, he planned on joining Simon Mayo at Greatest Hits Radio but ended up leaving three weeks earlier than expected. As a result, Radio 2 was left needing to create a new quiz to replace PopMaster, which Bruce was taking with him to his new station. Consequently, Vernon Kay was announced as the new replacement for Ken in May and Gary Davies will be presenting the quiz in the interim. Ten to the Top will involve two participants competing for a Radio 2 smart speaker by answering 10 questions that increase in value each time. However, if an incorrect answer is given, the point value is reset to one. Furthermore, every contestant is allowed to use a joker to double the points earned. PopMaster first aired in 1998.
