Here’s a format that’s been knocking around for absolute donkeys years, originally piloted with Justin Lee Collins about a decade ago for Channel 4 (IIRC), an unsuccessful run in Italy, another pilot with Lee Mack and finally, FINALLY the BBC have decided the time is right for First and Last<\/strong> with Jason Manford for primetime Saturday night viewing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First and Last sees eleven players battling it out for a prize of up to \u00a310,000 by playing a series of games, the golden rule is that you’re eliminated if you finish any game first or last. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s hope the show is better than the mediocrity required of its contestants, I can’t help but feel the First and Last Series<\/em> gag writes itself, but it’s got six episodes to prove its worthiness. Let us know what you think in the comments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
