this look set to be a mega hit,
A MILLION POUNDS, NINE CONTESTANTS, ONE BUNKER AND ONLY ONE WAY OUT…

Nine diverse contestants who have never met before are isolated in a specially designed underground bunker for Channel 4’s brand-new Unanimous, a gameshow where strategy, cunning and deviousness are everything. Cut off from the outside world, without clocks, windows or outside space, the group will have no idea whether it is day or night.

Their job is simple – they must decide unanimously which one of them deserves a cash prize of one million pounds. And as if reaching such a life-changing decision wasn’t difficult enough, to make matters worse the clock is ticking… if the contestants can’t reach a Unanimous decision, the prize money starts to count down – one pound every second they can’t decide.

The race is on for contestants to convince each other they are most worthy of winning. Some will stop at nothing. Following the first unsuccessful vote the group are forced to reveal some incendiary secrets to each other - the ramifications of which ripple through the bunker -resulting in one of the group becoming an outcast and therefore not eligible to win the money.

With the clock ticking down it's time for someone to take the lead and do some strategic thinking.

This was on FOX here in the States. Show flopped big time. Good premise though.

The host was a real dud. Geeky tool boy.

It kind of reminds me of the movie The Hole, only with heaps of money involved. I don't think it will do any better in the U.K. than it did here.

I don't get it... everybody would think they deserve the money more than anyone else... and I'd just make up some crap about my mother dying of cancer and me losing my brother in an automobile accident. Make them feel sorry for me!

One guy did make up the cancer thing, he didn't win.

Couldn't you just say "give it to me, I'll split it between everybody else. See, I've said that on television, you have it recorded, it counts as an oral contract and if I don't share the money equally with you all, you can simply sue. Fair? Fair!"
