Channel 4 quiz gives £1m with no questions asked
12 April 2012
Contestants could lose £1 million in a new Channel 4 quiz.
Participants are given the sum at the start of the show, which will be broadcast live from a secret secure location, but will have to watch their cash disappear down trapdoors if they fail to answer questions correctly.
Channel 4 has commissioned the show, provisionally entitled The Drop, from Endemol, the TV company behind Big Brother.
Contestants will be picked from social networking websites in a process that producers say will "revolutionise how TV gameshows are cast".
