It was amusing to watch Gemma Collins throw a strop during her futuristic zone game, trying to get them to stop the game (which the producers didn't edit out). The game itself was quite interesting an reminded me of a more basic version played back in the 90s (possibly series 2 or 3), where the contestant was shown as a dot on a monitor to the team outside.

Series 3.

Yes... I thought of that game as well, here's the one winner of that game... (if it doesn't start from when I linked it, play from 11:00)

Gemma Collins is always throwing a strop, she thinks she's something special. She's insufferable.

Bet she’s got a lot more money in the bank than you though.

Is that how we measure the value of human beings?
SuperSajuuk and james-2001 gave kudos

Nope, but I’m illustrating that she’s found her niche and, as unpalatable that is to you and me, it gives her the reward she wants from it.

I agree. But that doesn’t mean people can’t find her annoying.

First look at the American family version, starting on Nickelodeon in January. Of course with being filmed in Bristol it doesn't look that different and uses the majority of the games we've seen here, but I have to admit that I think the design used at the end of the clip looks a lot better than ours.

They kept the theme tune. Very Happy

So as expected, a cash prize at the end of the show, just until £19k at today's rates. Wonder if they get a commemorative crystal as well?

According to an article on deadline.com, the youngest family member is the team captain. This is hardly surprising considering the show is on Nickelodeon and looks like its a ten episode run.

I don't see why they wouldn't get the crystal, as contestants here get that, win or lose.
