Phillip Schofield hosts as contestants enter a 4 metre perspex cube within which they must complete a series of challenges. Each challenge is worth increasingly more money, but as the money on offer increases, so too increases the difficulty of the challenges. Each contestant has nine lives, with which they need to successfully complete up to seven challenges in order to win up to £250,000. However should they use up all of their lives they leave with nothing. | Phillip Schofield hosts as contestants enter a 4 metre perspex cube within which they must complete a series of challenges.

Key moments
A contestant taking his trousers off in order to make one of the games easier. (Schofield freely admitted that he couldn't believe that he was allowing said contestant to do this - clearly, this was one of the most bizarre moments of his TV career).
Catchphrases
"The next time I see you, you'll either be out here with £X,000... or nothing."
"You didn't beat The Cube, but you took £X,000 out of it."
Trivia
The programme was originally pitched at Channel 4, who produced a non-broadcast pilot hosted by Justin Lee Collins.
Series one contestant JJ, who won £10,000, would later appear as a housemate on the eleventh series of Big Brother.
