The hit quiz format Jeopardy!<\/em> is getting a local treatment for ITV1 and ITVX to be hosted by Stephen Fry.<\/p>\n

The series first came to screens in the U.K. in the 1980s, but now, ITV and Stephen Fry are bringing a modern twist to the iconic game show.<\/p>\n

Whisper North is producing the 20×1-hour series. The new show will allow participants to play an extra round compared to the original format, increasing the stakes for the players.<\/p>\n

Paramount Global Content Distribution distributes the long-running U.S. series, along with the format rights.<\/p>\n

Fry said: \u201cIn the United States, Jeopardy!<\/em> is a phenomenon like no other. Whenever I\u2019m in America, I do my damnedest to catch it every weekday. The idea of hosting it here in the U.K. makes me dizzy with delight. Such a dedicated quizzing nation as ours will, I hope, welcome this uniquely beguiling and endlessly rewarding game.\u201d<\/p>\n

Katie Rawcliffe, ITV’s head of entertainment, said: \u201cBringing Jeopardy!<\/em> to a brand-new audience as part of our weekday schedule is exciting. There is no one better to host this classic game show than Stephen, bringing knowledge and entertainment to all of our viewers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sunil Patel, Whisper CEO, said: \u201cI can’t think of a more perfect pairing: An iconic American quiz show and the legendary Stephen Fry. It’s an absolute thrill to introduce Jeopardy!<\/em> to a new generation of ITV quiz fans, with its unique twist on the traditional question-and-answer format where viewers can play along at home.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
