Coming up

  • Mr & Mrs - yes, it looks like the all-star revival is absolutely definitely, probably quite likely possibly ON! And Phillip Schofield and Fern Britton are lined up to host. (ITV, around April 2008)
  • The Kids Are All Right (formerly The Swot Team): John Barrowman hosts as contestants take on child prodigies in mental and physical challenges. (Endemol for BBC One)
  • BrainBox: daytime puzzle show described as a "brain-games" format. That Doctor Kawashima has a lot to answer for. (BBC Manchester for BBC Two)
  • Big Kidz, a CBBC show "where kids get to be grown ups and grown ups get to be kids," apparently. Kate Edmonson hosts.
  • Saturday Night Showdown - Vernon Kay and Bruce Forsyth host what looks to be an old-style Gen Game-type Saturday night game show. Hopefully they'll come up with a better title, though. (BBC1)
  • Eating With The Enemy - knockout contest for amateur chefs. James Martin is to be a "mentor". (RDF West for BBC)
  • Making a Meal of It - couples are challenged to take the reins of a busy restaurant. (BBC Birmingham for BBC1 Daytime)
  • First and Last, a show where people compete to be as average as possible, ironically to be hosted by Justin Lee Collins. Wikipedia has a description of this format. (Endemol for Channel 4).
  • Beat the Host - a German format apparently being "prepped" (as they say) for the British market, in which contestants take on the host in a series of games. A pilot has been made with Vernon Kay. (Diverse, channel TBA)
  • Battle of the Exes - one-off relationship game show with Alex Zane and Jenny Frost. (E4)
  • Click City sends kids on a treasure hunt with mobile phones. (Lion TV, channel unknown)
  • Space Pirates: virtual reality adventure game for children. (Lion TV, channel unknown)
  • Best in Preschool: Lorraine Kelly and Dominic Wood test pre-schoolers on stuff. (ITV1, later this year)
  • Extreme: thecustard.tv says: "game show featuring men aged 45 to 60 competing in dangerous challenges". (ITV1)
  • Celebrity Bowls: Celebrity bowls. With Gail Porter. Apparently. (Channel 4)
  • Big Bluffer - famous faces gamble their own money on the outcome of stunts. Hosted by Alex Zane. (Zeppotron(?) for Channel 4)
  • Tough Decisions, a comedy quiz with Patrick McGuinness (Objective for E4)
  • Dawns-Tastig (Dancetastic), S4C prepares to jump onto the dance-based reality bandwagon with this contest for 11-14 years old. Winners get performance with dance group in a Pineapple Studios production in London (Apollo for S4C)
