Last year’s biggest pretend hit Hunted has just begun filming and this time to go along with the £100,000 prize money the contestants are playing for this time you can earn money for tip-offs.
You can see who is currently on the run on their Twitter feed. We’re quite enjoying the disclaimer at the bottom of each wanted poster.
There is also a Youtube Channel (Hunter HQ TV Programme, confusingly) which puts out things like this:
Edit: Looks like it’s all taken down, so make of that what you will.
They are looking for seven Runners and the deadline for info is May 22nd. Spoilers are great!
You can’t help but think that if this is the route it’s going down it ought to be a bit more live really.
My favourite new show of 2015 – glad it has come back. I do like the format of the show although not seen Ray Cokes as yet.
Ninja Warrior Italia announced!
meanwhile, RAI1 is airing Colors, a brand new game, at 4PM (an unusual time for gameshows) with Amadeus as the host.
after three weeks, it will be replaced by Chain Reaction at the usual 7PM
it’s got different rules from the 2014 pilot http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x482j1i_colors-puntata-trasmessa-il-18-luglio-2014_tv

In other news! CJ is leaving Eggheads to act. Again.
And they’re looking for two new Eggheads. It sounds like Make Me An Egghead is going to be a “thing”.
If that interests you details in the tweet:

Make Me An Egghead
20×30′ and 5×45′
BBC Commissioning Editor Jo Street, 12 Yard Productions Executive Producers Andy Culpin and Rob Dean
Make Me An Egghead is brand new quiz show with a prize that money cannot buy – the chance to become an Egghead. Hosted by Jeremy Vine, one man and one woman must defeat stiff competition if they are to earn the right to join the most formidable quiz team in Britain.
Eggheads is a popular general knowledge quiz hosted by Jeremey Vine in which teams from all over the UK battle to beat the formidable Eggheads, and has been running since 2003.
Eggheads has also been recommissioned for its 18th series of 85×30’ episodes and is also made by 12 Yard Productions.
Also Debatable with Patrick Kielty and another series of Think Tank: http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2016/dan-mcgolpin.
It’s fun, Debatable sounds a bit like Celebrity Think Tank.
Will be interested to see if there are many format differences between Make Me An Egghead and Are You An Egghead? IIRC Paul B who occasionally haunts here is responsible for AYAE.
There can’t be much more they can wring out of the Eggheads concept… can there?
Yes, this really is my first post here in three years…
I don’t know what’s going on here, or how I ended up on either of them, but I love it.
