LONDON: Channel 4 has greenlit a new run of Fifteen to One, which is getting a 20-episode series and four celebrity specials.

Fifteen to One originally ran from 1988 to 2003. Channel 4 brought it back recently for a one-off special for its '80s Night.

The four new celebrity specials will be hosted by Adam Hills. Sandi Toksvig will host the 20-episode series, which will run in daytime.

From Remedy Productions, Fifteen to One is a fast-paced general-knowledge quiz show. Fifteen contestants start the game, only one winner emerges.

Hills said: “I am thrilled to be part of the ongoing institution that is Fifteen to One. The celebrity specials combine two of my favorite things: general-knowledge questions, and the chance to watch well-known people try not to make dicks of themselves in public.”

Toksvig added: “I'm thrilled to be taking up the mantle of hosting Fifteen to One. It is a legendary quiz show with tough questions. I'm glad I'll be asking, not answering. I'm also delighted to be back at Channel 4.”
