ITV CONFIRMS SECOND SERIES AND NEW ADDITIONS TO THE FLOOR AS HIT GAMESHOW RETURNS FOR SECOND SERIES

Following the huge success of the first series, ITV has commissioned a second series of hit primetime quiz The Floor, hosted by award-winning actor and comedian Rob Brydon. Series one has reached over 11 million viewers across ITV and ITVX, making it ITV’s biggest entertainment launch in over a year.

Now, the giant LED grid is set to light up once more with even more duels in store, added audio rounds and a brand new ‘category steal’ twist. This time the series sees 90 brand-new contestants prepare to battle it out in the ultimate test of knowledge and nerve, all in the hope of taking home £50,000.

Quiz fanatics face off in duels where each of the 90 squares represents its own field of knowledge. The goal is to conquer the entire floor. The rules are simple: a contestant challenges an adjoining opponent in a quiz duel. They play against each other in the category of the opponent’s square.

The winner of a duel conquers their opponent’s square, gaining more ground - the loser leaves the game. The further the game progresses, the more exciting the duels become and the higher the stakes. After ten episodes, who will be the last person standing on The Floor?

The first series of The Floor is available now on ITVX.
