The Floor | Preview (ITV1)

Award-winning actor and comedian Rob Brydon is to host ITV’s eagerly anticipated new primetime version of The Floor. With his trademark humour and warmth seen in projects such as Gavin & Stacey, Would I Lie to You? and The Trip, Rob will now bring his inimitable style to the fast-paced high-stakes gameplay of this innovative quiz show format.

In 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. Who will be the last person standing on The Floor and take home £50,000?

With Rob Brydon commanding The Floor, viewers are set for unmissable quizzing as he guides contestants and audiences through exciting play alongs and nail-biting competition

The Floor begins Sunday 4th January at 8pm on ITV1.
