Listen up, film fans.

If you want to put your movie trivia and music knowledge to the test, now's your chance. The Chase star Darragh Ennis is challenging you to identify the popular film soundtracks.

It's trickier than it may seem – as music can get forgotten or blend into the background when you're distracted by all the action taking place on screen.

Darragh Ennis – known as The Menace when he's taking on contestants on the ITV quiz show – challenged viewers to take part by posting a video to his TikTok account. He teased not "many people" could get all five questions right – so will you be one of them?

On Darragh's @bonesgiles account, the quizzing pro starts with some instructions. He plays five clips of music taken from "really well-known movies".

Then all you need to do is name which film the music comes from. He claimed the clips "start off easy and get harder" as he added: "I bet you can't get all five."

Struggling? Fear not, as The Chaser gave his top tips. The first tune is from a "very successful movie franchise" and appears in more than one movie.

Next, you'll hear a piece from "one of the highest-rated movies of all time". Then listen out for some notes from "an absolute box office smash hit that won loads of Oscars".

If you're finding it too easy so far, prepare yourself. The final two song choices are "a little bit harder" than the first three.

Darragh advised us the fourth track was from a film which has a "sequel due out later this year", while the final track is from a "very successful movie from the 1980s". Scroll down to see if you got them correct!

"The Chase" is a television game show format originally from the United Kingdom. It first aired on ITV in 2009 and is hosted by Bradley Walsh. The programme is so popular that it has since spawned many international adaptations.

The show features a team of contestants who individually attempt to amass as much money as possible for a collective prize fund by answering a series of general knowledge questions. The twist is that each contestant must face off against a professional quizzer known as "the Chaser," whose goal is to prevent the contestant from adding money to the team's pot.

Along with Darragh, other Chasers include Mark Labbett, Shaun Wallace, Anne Hegerty, Paul Sinha and Jenny Ryan.
