FIRST & LAST WITH JASON MANFORD 'TO RETURN FOR SECOND SERIES'

Jason Manford has tweeted (see below) suggesting the show will return for a second series on BBC One later this year.

First airing in 2020, First And Last was a new game show that put contestants through a succession of ingenious rounds, all of which have one golden rule - players mustn’t come first or last in any game. If they do, they will be eliminated.

Eleven contestants start each show and compete across a range of five downright daft, stupidly funny, play-along-at-home games that will see one of them leave with a cash prize of up to £10,000. The first and last players are eliminated from each round. To triumph, they’ll need to judge every round to perfection and hold their nerve in the nail-biting endgame - contested by the remaining three players.

The BBC declined to comment.
