The Chamber<\/strong> sounds like Very Much The Sort Of Thing We Would Like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE CHAMBER
Boom for S4C
\u00a0
The Chamber is a unique game show like nothing else on earth\u2026or under earth. The world\u2019s first underground game show thrusts everyday people into an extraordinary subterranean world. Each episode sees two teams take on four different levels designed to test fitness, brainpower and bravery.\u00a0 The aim of the game is to be the first team to reach the bottom of the chamber and escape, in a race against time to crack the code before the power \u2013 and the chamber itself \u2013 shut down! With a fully-functioning international hub in Wales, based in a disused Victorian mine, The Chamber delivers a ready-made opportunity for cost-effective, family entertainment. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

And Talpa’s The Desert<\/strong> is just Survivor with a racing end game by the sounds of it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE DESERT
\u00a0
Find the hero within.
In The Desert, competitors are taken away from the urban jungle and placed in the heart of the world\u2019s most unforgiving environment: the desert. Split into teams and guided by survival experts, they must make this harsh environment their home. Weekly boot camps and tests will lead to eliminations, where the losing team will have to vote a team member off the show. Eventually both teams merge into one, and it will be everyone for themselves. After 100 days, the two remaining finalists will compete in an epic three-day solitary race through the desert! This is more than just a competition. The Desert is a transformational journey of self-discovery that will test the competitors\u2019 determination and physical strength. Who will keep up with nature? <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

And nobody is going to watch a show called Catchpoint<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CATCHPOINT
Possessed and 12 Yard co-production for BBC One
\u00a0
The big, physical game in which you don\u2019t always have to be correct to win \u2013 you just have to be close enough to the dropping balls\u2026 and catch them! Two teams of two answer a series of picture questions to build up their money bank. Every question has ten possible answers, each represented by an image on a giant LED screen. Suspended above the screen is a mechanism that will release a giant ball with the correct answer. Each ball caught adds money to the bank. All the players have to stand in front of the image showing what they hope to be the correct answer. If they are right, the ball will simply drop into their hands but, if they\u2019re wrong, they still have the opportunity to dash, dive or leap to catch it from wherever it falls. The closer they are to the correct answer, the easier it is to reach the falling ball. Full of unique, visual questions, nail-biting tension and hilarious fun. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
