I really can't see them reviving 100%, and ITV own the rights to most of the others you mentioned. Going for Gold is owned by Fremantle (it was made by Grundy), and thus would've been more likely to get a Channel 5 series before RTL sold the channel.


Going for Gold was tried twice on Channel 5 anyway (it was called One to Win for one series) so it is time for some new ideas now. I would like to see 100% return though. It must be quite cheap to make. Didn't they give away £100 each episode? The studio wasn't anything special and I don't imagine buying in questions costs that much either but it was a good play-along programme.

£7,500 to be exact. Ian Lygo was forced to retire from the show after winning 75 games when bosses changed the rules.
