New quiz from the makers of The Chase<\/strong>, contestants try and win up to \u00a35,000 in a quiz version of those donkey-derby machines you get in funfairs (you know the sort, where you roll the ball in the hole and your donkey goes along a track) only this time the contestants are in chariots and you have to get questions right to propel yourself forward. Hopefully they’ve nailed the kinetic energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Really lovely idea (also crucially, easy to explain to others as “that show with the moving chairs”) – hopefully there’s little a bit more to it than one correct answer = one space but perhaps that’ll be enough, who knows. Capital Radio breakfast show and Broman<\/strong>‘s voiceover Roman Kemp is a new face for quizzing, although it sounds like Saturday morning legend Sarah Greene will be asking the questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We pointed out ages ago that it’s basically the *exact opposite* of Andi Peters chair-a-thon Ejector Seat<\/strong> which was a neat idea that didn’t quite nail the execution. Fingers crossed this will nail the execution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
