The BBC has reportedly hired Amanda Holden to host a new Traitors-style quiz show after the finale of the popular reality series pulled in a whopping 7.4 million viewers. The show, titled The Inner Circle, will feature Amanda, 53, hosting on Saturday evenings on BBC One, according to The Sun.
Similar to The Traitors, the show will weave a web of mystery, intrigue, and betrayal, with contestants competing in games and challenges to build up a cash pot. However, the amount they end up taking home will depend entirely on who they can trust - and who might betray them at the last minute.
A TV insider told The Sun: 'Although this is a different concept to The Traitors, it taps into many of its devious elements.'. The Inner Circle will mark Amanda's first solo presenting gig for the BBC, following the success of her home renovation series with Alan Carr.
The BBC has reportedly hired Amanda Holden to host a new Traitors-style quiz show after the finale of the popular reality series pulled in a whopping 7.4 million viewers (Claudia Winkleman with the series three contestants). The show, titled The Inner Circle, will feature Amanda, 53, hosting on Saturday evenings on BBC One, according to The Sun.
Filming is reportedly set to begin this spring, with the show potentially airing later this year. Contestants will have their general knowledge and strategic thinking tested, but the twist is that they must form alliances to win the prize. However, they won't know whether those alliances will hold, or whether they'll be stabbed in the back.
