Making it up

The flowering of commercial creativity is in full bloom at this week's BBC Studios virtual showcase. Look at these excellent new gameshow formats, not yet conceived by Private Eye. 

The 1% Club is a unique, entertaining and funny gameshow that tests the nation’s intelligence, based on a scientific survey. It’s a chance to test how your brain works through a series of questions that often lead to extremely entertaining answers. (Lee Mack brings this to ITV in 2021....)

Lose Weight Like Me: This inspirational and entertaining weight loss format packed with reveals challenges two dieters to lose weight like one of four ‘weight loss heroes’ – members of the public who have lost up to 200lbs. 

Filth (w/t): Each episode sends two pairs of cleaning obsessed strangers to two real-life filthy homes. The duos use their favourite cleaning hacks, from bleach to bicarbonate of soda, and blitz these dirty dwellings. The couple that cleans the best then splits up to compete against each other. 

Small Fortune: Teams of three compete in games set in perfectly miniaturised worlds. From flicking a microscopic newspaper into a miniscule bin in the White House Oval Office, to throwing a hoop over the Statue of Liberty, challenges require focus, determination and an extremely steady hand. 

Fact or Fake: Celebrities filter out facts from fake news in this hilarious comedy entertainment show. Three guest comedians are shown viral videos and social media posts, sensational newspaper headlines and urban legends by the show’s poker-faced host. Are these videos Fact or Fake?
