It’s back! And the first episode is up now. Join the discussion, as they say on BBC News 24.
Also of note: Que est la Taupe? began on M6 tonight, it’s the first French version of The Mole, and Endemol are producing it – fingers crossed they do a better version than Fremantle.
Stay tuned, we’ve got something cracking lined-up just after midnight.

With French Mole, it looks like another South Africa season (big tick from me!) and any money lost by the team will be given to the Mole themselves.
I sort of like that but there ought to be some sort of penalty if people get onto you.
They sort of tried it in Australia about ten years ago then quietly forgot about it as the series progressed, only to bring it back up in the final “if neither if you guess right The Mole wins,” which seemed improbably difficult.
Maximum pot is 100k as well – forgot to say that.
That’s a decent pot for M6.
Mission 1: The traditional tandem skydive for 6,000 Euros. Before the game, the host has everyone fill in a card saying who their first impressions Mole is. After the game, the potential mole has the option to either put 6k in the pot or get an exemption.
Any idea where to find it?
It will probably show up here soon: http://www.6play.fr/m6/tous-les-programmes#/m6/tous-les-programmes

Dutch Pointless starts July 27th from what I read…
Well this is intriguing, it sounds like Decimate is coming back.
They’re looking for individuals, you can e-mail decimatecasting@cplproductions.co.uk by August 15th for an application.
Intriguing.
Just watched the first bit of the Finale with French Mole. Not a great pick as Mole, and also the Mole’s pot has the Aussie Mole twist of only being given to the Mole if they go unsuspected by the finalists.
I don’t like that, the best tactic would be to not Mole and let the pot build by natural failure, and even then your odds aren’t good.
And also, I was very impressed that they said “up to 100 000 Euros” and then it added to 100k, but it’s actually 104k potentially, so I’m now disappointed.
