The live, interactive series asks viewers to vote along on opinion-based topics, whilst a celebrity panel go head to head to try and second-guess what the audience at home will answer. Audiences will be asked to download a free app to play along with this 6 x 60 minute series.

Because asking the British public to answer important questions has always worked in the past...

Alexander Armstrong is the host, I'm sure he'll do a good job.

Alexander Armstrong is good at everything he does. One of those presenters who makes everything to do with TV and presenting look totally effortless. Funnily enough he turned down the Countdown role after Des O'Connor left saying he didn't want to be pigeon-holed as a presenter. Then Pointless came along Very Happy

This sounds like a rehash of that BBC One show I think it was that Anne Robinson presented, Beat The Nation or something like that?

I don't think it will be as drawn out as TTN. That was more an actual 'test' and this sounds more like an actual gameshow.

From the trailer that keeps popping up I presumed that it would be similar to a quiz of millionnaire style ask the audience questions.

For a moment I thought ITV News had rebranded and relaunched The Pulse (wasn't that what it was called?).

I can almost hear Tom Bradby now: "But what should the government do if Brexit negotiations fail? Don't ask me; Ask Britain." Followed by what Judy from Walthomstow "reckons."

They've got the same Live bug as Saturday Night Takeaway by the look of it, and the voting background music seems to be from Catchphrase.
