Been some discussion in the gameshow thread but think we need to get into the habit of more individual threads for individual programmes.
Starts tonight at 6pm - set looks great, amazingly this I think is Graham Norton's first stint as the host of a gameshow format since his C5 panel show in the late 90s and I think he did one of the overnight ITV gameshows around that time too.
No co-host with the letter revealing themselves, and we know there are "toss up" puzzles taken from the US version which are basically quickfire games without the wheel. I think they determine who goes first in a round.
Also from Granada Reports last night we can see the jackpot wheel is in play too which selects the main prize - it's £50k here, so not quite the $1m you see in the US. TBH with that in play surprised they haven't thrown in the possibility of £100k being in play.
