I'll be dead honest with you: I HATE the game shows on ITV1 at the moment. Sub par Wheel of Fortune, boring Jeopardy, disappointing Deal or No Deal... I could go on. What can save me? Ant and Dec (they always do to be fair).
Ant and Dec's Limitless Win is a concept that shouldn't exist for ITV's sake. If a really knowledgeable couple went on this show, ITV would be shaking in their boots. But that's the charm of this show. You've got a supportive duo for hosts, a concept that can either win you millions or send you packing even though you were close to millions and suspense.
The concept is simple. Each couple begins by answering general knowledge questions. Every question they get right gets them 5 lives. At the end of the round, the lives get counted up ready for use on the money ladder. There are 4 lifelines that the couple can use: Take Two, which has both the couple and Ant and Dec answer the question and the ladder will use the better answer, Odd or Even, which tells you whether the answer is Odd or Even, Range which tells you what the answer is In between and More Than which tells you whether the number you picked is more or less than the answer. You obtain these by going over them on the money ladder. You answer questions which have numbers as answers and you go up steps for that answer. If you go over the answer, you lose everything, if you go under the answer, you don't bank anything and lose a certain amount of lives for the difference between your guess and the answer and if you get it spot on, you bank what amount you passed and you get 5 extra lives. The couple can take the money they've banked whenever they want to.
I adore this show, although it's probably the reason as to why the other game shows on ITV1 haven't got as much money to earn as they probably wanted to.
10/10.
