The beloved quiz show Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? is undergoing its biggest shake-up in years, with ITV announcing a series of exciting new changes to keep the format fresh and engaging.
New Lifelines and Twists
Gone are the days of simply relying on 'Phone a Friend' or 'Ask the Audience.' The revamped version introduces brand-new lifelines designed to test contestants' knowledge and strategy like never before.
- Double Dip: Contestants can now lock in two possible answers, doubling their chances of survival.
- Time Freeze: A pause button for the clock, giving players extra breathing room on tough questions.
- Expert Hotline: A direct line to a specialist in the chosen subject area.
Jeremy Clarkson Returns as Host
Despite rumours of a new presenter, Jeremy Clarkson will continue to helm the show, bringing his signature wit and charm to the updated format. "We wanted to keep the essence of the show but make it even more thrilling," Clarkson said in a statement.
Why the Change?
With ratings facing stiff competition from streaming platforms, ITV hopes these bold moves will reinvigorate interest in the classic game show. The new series is expected to air later this year.
