The Inner Circle | Preview (BBC One)

Amanda Holden hosts this exciting quiz show, packed with strategy, high stakes and surprises. Six players are each randomly assigned a secret stash of cash, anything between zero and a whopping £4,000.

The twist? Each player only knows their own value before being thrown into a battle of wits, nerve, and strategic gameplay across a series of challenging rounds.

Their mission? Uncover who’s got what, outsmart their rivals, and secure their spot in the final, where they face the ultimate showdown. Will they choose to split their combined prize money, or will one player attempt to take it all, leaving the other with nothing?

25 daytime episodes of The Inner Circle will see members of the public taking part in each edition with a further 6 celebrity specials for Saturday nights set to feature famous faces joining forces with a member of the public, bringing together star power and fresh energy to these prime time episodes.

Amanda Holden said: “I'm so excited to be part of this thrilling new quiz that challenges contestants and entertains viewers in equal measure. It's a fantastic opportunity to bring something fresh and fabulous to weekday afternoons and Saturday night TV, and I can't wait to see the audience reactions!”

Rob Unsworth Head of BBC Daytime and Early Peak and Kalpna Patel-Knight, Head of Entertainment at the BBC said: “We’re delighted to be joining forces to bring viewers a gripping new quiz that, for the first time, they’ll be able to play along with not only during the week, but on a Saturday tea time too. Getting the answers right on this show is only half the battle - contestants also need to decide who they trust enough to keep in the game, all under the watchful eye of the brilliantly mischievous Amanda Holden.”

David Marshall, Head of Entertainment at Tern said: “Saturday night and quiz is a new frontier for us at Tern, and we're delighted that the BBC has entrusted us with this exciting opportunity. Our team here in Scotland is geared up to deliver a show that will captivate audiences with its unique blend of strategy, drama, and fun.”

Harry Bell, Managing Director at Tern said: “This is a classic David and Goliath success story for Tern, the Nations and the BBC. The development process has been the hardest imaginable but the BBC and BBC Studios have been truly magical partners. Sometimes dreams come true!”

The Inner Circle begins Monday 6th October at 4:30pm on BBC One.
