Starting next Tuesday and for the next 4 weeks at 6pm on BBC2 we have The People's Quiz Wildcard when nine challenges complete for a place in the ground final, Sounds Exciting! Laughing It wouldnt surprise me if it's actuly better then the BBC1 show altough i wonder what the format will be. Im not sure who will present I cant imagin it being Jamie. Maybe William could present this on his own?

Well the Wildcard has started...And it completely deviates from the format of the main show!

From what I could work out 10 contestants, 1 chosen at start then has to play against other contestants and beat them at 1:30 question rounds (be in control at the end of the round, the other person gains control if 'switch' is said, an incorrect answer is given or they are timed out) and end up building a 'chain' of wins. Once the chain ends the champion gets to sit in 'winners row' (Sorry, different show!!) with their chain and obviously as the shows go on the people with the lower score chains get knocked out of the contest.

Also the champion gets to pick the new champions challenger once in winners row.

Sound confusing? That is because it is very confusing!!!

Seems to be shot in a very small studio and Jamie is the only host (No quiz gods here!) although there is a mystery voice profiling the contestants.
