New ITV show 99 to Beat
Back in April, reports claimed that ITV was launching a new game show called 99 to Beat. Speaking to The Sun, a source said: “Whether it’s trying to find a dummy hidden in a vat of jelly or putting on a frozen t-shirt, the only aim of the game is to not come last. If they do, they’re out.
“The format is already successful in seven countries with multiple series in Germany, The Netherlands, Norway and Poland. The eight-part series starts with 100 contestants, and viewers will follow as players go head-to-head in a range of visually distinctive and often hilarious games.
“After each round, the number of players is gradually whittled down, with only one person taking the top prize.”
