YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS AXED BY CHANNEL 4 AFTER ONE SERIES

EXCLUSIVE

You Won't Believe This, the Channel 4 interrogation gameshow format hosted by Ellie Taylor, will not be returning for a second series.



You Won't Believe This, which aired in 2022, saw members of the public who fancy themselves as amateur sleuths hear unbelievable stories from a succession of 'suspects' - but only one of them is telling the truth. To help sort the fact from the fiction, all of the suspects are interrogated by experienced police detectives.



A Channel 4 spokesperson told TV Zone: ""Every year, Channel 4, like all broadcasters, makes decisions about which shows to rest, return or conclude to ensure we always innovate and offer viewers the best range of programming. The decision not to recommission You Won't Believe This which aired in 2022 was not financial."


Using tactics deployed on criminals, the contestants dig into the stories, prodding, probing and poring over every detail, giving them the grilling of their lives from the pressure-cooker environment of an interrogation cell.




It's up to the suspects to do a convincing job of selling their story. If the contestants manage to spot the truth, they're treated to a cash prize. But if they fail and pick a fake, the fibbing suspect walks away with the money.


You Won't Believe This is available to stream now on Channel 4.
