Well now. Well well well now.<\/p>\n
The Sun is reporting that The Crystal Maze<\/strong> is set for a big budget comeback,<\/a> initally as a one-off for Stand Up To Cancer with a view to a series. David Tennant is being tipped as host. I’ve had some private convos with some TV peeps who won’t give anything away but suggest it’s true.<\/p>\n Gosh and indeed blimey. Tennant’s a good choice as well if true.<\/p>\n I am simultaneously the world’s most excited and terrified 35-year-old. Excited because it was my fave show growing up. Terrified because modern production and editing techniques risk urinating all over my childhood.<\/p>\n I would have presumed they’d film a one-off at The Crystal Maze Live Experience<\/a> in London except I don’t think that would come across that well on camera. Stand Up To Cancer night is October 21st. This feels like it’s going to be a massive rush job or someone’s been secretly building a maze somewhere. If it’s big budget are they hoping other countries will film here Fort Boyard<\/strong> style?<\/p>\n So many questions. So much anticipation. Don’t be rubbish.<\/p>\n Edit:<\/strong> If it’s anything less than a 9\/10, there WILL BE\u00a0consequences. I will relentlessly slag off your next daytime quiz regardless of how good it actually is. If there’s ANY HINT of diary room style confessional or Field Removed Video, every show you work on gets 1\/10 in perpetuity. BE WARNED. No I don’t care how hard it is, you break it you buy it.<\/p>\n Edit Edit:<\/strong> It sounds like they ARE filming it at the Live Experience, I think I am already over this.<\/p>\n Edit Edit Edit:<\/strong> It’s going to be hosted by Stephen Merchant. Actually quite a good choice I think. Press release.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well now. Well well well now.
