Richard Klein, Controller of ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Four, has commissioned a second series of We Need Answers, the anarchic comedy game show, where the public set the questions to be answered by celebrity guests.
Hosted by Mark Watson, with expert analysis from Alex Horne and quiz master Tim Key, the series will return for a 13-week run later this year.
Each week two celebrities will battle it out to be crowned the winner and save themselves the shame of donning on the clogs of defeat!
The rules are simple – contestants must match their answer to the one given by a text answering service. These can range from how many gerbils stacked on each other would it take to reach the moon to what night of the week is curry night at the Red Lion in Stockport.
Richard Klein said: "I am delighted that We Need Answers is coming back. The show is a smart way of playing with the whole entertainment quiz genre, and Mark, Alex and Tim are an anarchic but genuinely funny team on the show (even if they still don't quite understand the questions)."
Jo Sargent, executive producer, added: "We're really excited to working with such rising stars in the comedy world. This show is certainly not like anything else and I'm delighted that ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Four have supported this show and commissioned a long and healthy run. Please watch it. No, seriously, please."
The series will be filmed in front of a live studio audience and transmit later this year. The series has been commissioned by Richard Klein and Lucy Lumsden, ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Controller of Comedy Commissioning.
The executive producer is Jo Sargent, the producer is Simon London.
