In Germany yesterday and today.
It’s a long shot but if you’ve been/are going do let us know what you thought.
Well this Twitter exchange at least proves the well-placed Giles Coren rumour:

Yep, Cologne it is! @Londinius went to the audition, he talks about it on his blog. Applied a while back more in hope than expectation.
I was poking around youtube and I stumbled upon this 2015-2016 een show called De Allesweter (The Know-It-All) from the same production company that does De Slimste and Twee Tot De Zesde Macht….
basics:
-4 Belgian celebs appear on each show. Before the show, one is randomly selected to be the Know-It-All; they well be fed all the answers through an earpiece all the celebs wear.
-Next to the host is a “human lie detector” who comments on who they think the KIT is through the game.
-Round 1 is a series of jump-in questions; some of them are obscure, but you might be able to think things through to get the correct answer. 100 points per correct answer.
-after this, the audience votes on who they think the KIT is through keypads- these results are shown.
-Round 2 is 4 sets of 3 questions. Each set is in a category that is a “weakness” to one of the celebs. The celebs all write down their answers. A correct answer is worth 100 points normally, but if a celeb answers one of their “weakness” questions right they get 200 points. These questions are accompained by Photoshopped pics of the celeb doing something associated with their weakness (For example, in the ep I posted above, one celeb’s weakness is art, so he was put into famous paintings and sculptures)
-Again, the lie detector and audience vote.
-Round 3 is a solo round. Starting with the player in 1st place, they pick one of 8 categories for a 60-second speed round. They get 300 points per right answer- but they are allowed no more than one miss or pass; the 2nd time the miss or pass, their round is automatically over.
-After this the player with the lowest score is eliminated; the lie detector then give their opinion on who the KIT is again.
-The audience then votes on who the KIT is between the remaining three players.
-The one who the audience thinks is the KIT is locked out of play to begin the final round.
-The other two players are given a series of jump-in questions, each correct answer is worth a point, first to 5 points wins.
-However, the audience can change their mind at any time on who they think the KIT is, so the person locked out of the game can change after any and every question.
-The winner gets their score turned into Euros, and has a chance to double it if they can guess who the KIT actually is- of course, if they are the KIT, they know.
And of course the link to the ep got eaten- here it is again:

Meanwhile Dale is still handing out his cheques on IITWI. C’mon Dale, you can pay them using t’Internet now you know 😉
Buzzerblog has just put up a post about a new show that NBC will be launching soon called The Wall. From the teaser image, it looks like the Americans are throwing their hat into the ring and having a go at an arcade game show like Tipping Point. The main centrepiece is a HUGE pegged wall with slots at the bottom with various small and large money values on them. Apparently the top prize is $12million!
It’s Big Money Quiz Plinko, basically.
Oh so its not this then
The real genius of that show was that you could download all the games as an app and play at home too (not interactively, IIRC).
I’m surprised it hasn’t been more of a hit, actually. If they could maybe use nicer screens to make the wall look a bit sexier, it might help.
It looks like people playing a 99p app but on TV. No surprise here surely?
Bring on the Wall!
