What is Channel 4 quiz show One Question and when does it start?

ONE Question is the new game show coming to Channel 4.

Here's everything you need to know.

What are the rules to One Question?

One Question is a new game show where a single question could change contestants’ lives to the tune of £100,000.

Questions on the show are deceptively simple, but they are presented with 20 possible answers, but only one is actually correct.

Tension for the contestant grows as they eliminate wrong answers and get closer to winning.

There is also the opportunity for the contestant to accept some tempting offers, such as additional clues and removing two wrong answers, but this will cost them thousands.

Combined with the studio environment and the pressure on the contestants, it all whittles down to the correct response.

Channel 4 said: “The contestants will be faced with twenty possible answers, but only one answer is correct.

“Eliminate the incorrect answers and they’ll be on the path to victory, but eliminate the one correct answer and it’s game over.”

When does it start on Channel 4?

One Question kicks off on Friday, June 24, 2022, at 8pm on Channel 4.

The six-part series will then air weekly in the same slot.

One Question will also be available on-demand via All 4 after each episode has aired.

Who is the host of the Channel 4 game?

The new Channel 4 show is hosted by Strictly Come Dancing's Claudia Winkleman, who will be taking on the role of quiz master.

This marks her first time hosting a quiz or a game show since appearing on Talking Telephone Numbers in 1997 with Phillip Schofield.

Speaking ahead of the show, Claudia commented: “I am ridiculously excited about One Question.

"There’s no time limit, no buzzers, no complicated rules.

"A sofa, a chat, just one question that could win our players £100k.

“Not only that, we give them the answer. Tricky part is we give them 19 wrong answers too.

"I’ve bought a new black sweater and the studio has a toasted sandwich maker. I can’t wait.”
