Notably it&#8217;s just two episodes, so how they put this out will be interesting &#8211; the German show is one huge annual event TV show these days so it will be interesting to see if they go down that route &#8211; or even Xmas and New Year possibly?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also interesting is that along with the classic (towards the end) format of the audience voting and celebs getting points for correctly predicting with the winning celeb winning money for charity and the losing celeb having to do a forfeit, they&#8217;re adopting the &#8220;Wettkonig&#8221; from latter day <strong>Wetten Dass?<\/strong>, where the audience votes for the most impressive bet at the end of the show and they&#8217;ll be going home with \u00a310,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway we&#8217;re quite looking forward to this. Intrigued to see where they film it, it&#8217;s going to need to be a studio that can have do a bit of scale I think.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EXTREMELY exciting news this evening, TV Zone reporting ITV have ordered 2&#215;75 minute episodes of You Bet! to be hosted by Stephen Mulhern and Holly Willoughby to standard Twitter presenter choice ennui.
