 BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT

Ant & Dec will lead the nation through a new round of unforgettable auditions as performers showcase their talents in the hope of reaching the live semi-finals, and winning over the four individual judges: Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, and returning judge KSI.

 WHEEL OF FORTUNE

Graham Norton returns with a brand-new series of Wheel of Fortune. Following on from the festive family special this Christmas, the nation’s favourite game of skill and luck is back with even more excitement, laughter, and big-money prizes.

Each episode sees three new contestants spin the iconic wheel and solve the puzzles for their chance to win up to £50,000 - this new series also features the return of the hugely popular Couples’ Episode and introduces fresh gameplay twists, including the aptly named Bankrupt Shield which could save players from losing it all.

Lee Mack’s award-winning hit ITV game show returns for a fifth series. The show sees 100 contestants begin every show, but to make it to the end and win the top prize of up to £100,000, contestants must correctly answer a question only 1% of the country would get right.

 ANT & DEC'S LIMITLESS WIN

The primetime hit entertainment quiz show is back for a thrilling fifth series. With the stakes higher than ever, a new line-up of contestants take on the Limitless Ladder and push their knowledge and nerve to the absolute limit as they attempt to win a life-changing fortune. Across six primetime shows, this groundbreaking format continues to make TV history with its unique, never-ending money ladder offering the world’s only unlimited jackpot.

CELEBRITY SABOTAGE

Joel Dommett, Judi Love, Sam Thompson and GK Barry - alongside a whole host of celebrities - get ready to shock the nation in a brand-new ITV entertainment reality game show. Celebrity Sabotage is a new entertainment reality game show that will see Joel, Judi, Sam and GK team up to playfully sabotage unsuspecting con testants.

Their mission? To complete daring and funny stunts in order to win a secret cash prize for the participants! Each week our gang of celebrity saboteurs will be joined by a new guest sab oteur including Jill Scott MBE, Fay Ripley, Olivia Attwood, Jo Brand, Guz Khan and Harry Redknapp who will join in on all the action and cause even more mischief and mayhem.

 THE BOX

Hosted by legendary broadcaster Gary Lineker, The Box is a thrilling new format that plunges 10 celebrity contestants into the unknown. With each celebrity enclosed in a yellow box, they’ll find themselves in mystery locations across the country - they will never know where they are, or what challenge is facing them on the other side.

The challenges could be physical, mental, logical, funny, a bit daunting or all of those at once - with minimal or no instruction, they must decipher and work out what to do. At the end of each episode, two players will battle it out in The Duel, a high-stakes head-to-head game to avoid elimination. The Box promises shocking reveals, mind-bending puzzles, and plenty of twists across the series.

 THE FLOOR

Rob Brydon is to host ITV’s eagerly anticipated new primetime version of The Floor. 81 quiz fanatics face off in quiz duels on a giant LED floor divided into 81 equal squares, each representing its own field of knowledge. The goal is to conquer the entire floor and take home a huge cash prize.

The rules are simple - a random contestant challenges an adjoining opponent in a quiz duel and they play against each other in the category of the opponent’s square. The winner of a duel conquers their opponent’s square and gains more ground - the loser leaves the game. The further the game progresses, the more exciting the duels become and the higher the stakes.

 MILLIONAIRE HOT SEAT

Hosted by Jeremy Clarkson, this thrilling fast-paced twist on the global Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? phenomenon puts six contestants in a battle against the clock and each other for a chance to win life-changing money. In Millionaire Hot Seat, every second counts - players take turns in the Hot Seat facing Jeremy and climbing the Million Pound Money Ladder one question at a time.

A correct answer keeps them in the game, but one wrong move means elimination and the top prize drops - contestants can choose to ‘pass’ and stay alive, but that means moving to the back of the line and risking never getting another turn. The rules are simple, but the gameplay is ruthless - Millionaire Hot Seat demands quick thinking, tactical play, and nerves of steel.

 THE JONATHAN ROSS SHOW

The Jonathan Ross Show returns to ITV with another stellar line-up of celebrity guests ready to delve into the hottest news in movies, music, sports, comedy and the wider world of entertainment. Back for its 23rd series, each episode brings a captivating blend of exclusive behind-the-scenes stories, shock revelations and laugh-out-loud anecdotes.

 THE BRIT AWARDS

The BRIT Awards 2026 with Mastercard will make its way north to Manchester’s Co-op Live for the UK’s biggest night in music on Saturday 28th February. Broadcast live on ITV1 and ITVX, the show will feature spectacular performances from British and international star artists and will celebrate another brilliant year in music, including through the blue-riband Mastercard Album of the Year, Artist of the Year, and Song of the Year awards among other categories.

 THE OSCARS
