Remember Hole In The Wall? That BBC gameshow that had contestants contorting themselves into random shapes to avoid falling into a pool of water? It was top tier entertainment and it's making a comback!

First airing in 2008, the very physical game show only ran for 2 series.
The game saw contestants wear skintight silver onesies and blue helmets, attempt to form the random shape of the hole in the wall slowly coming towards them.
If they were successful, the wall would smoothly slide past them. If they failed they were pushed into a pool of water.
A TV insider said: “The production company that own the rights to the show have been floating the idea of bringing it back with broadcasters."
"That includes the BBC, they continued, "But just because it started out on the Beeb doesn’t mean it will end up there second time round, it could end up on ITV or even a streamer."
So we're looking at a bidding war by the sounds of it!
The original Hole In The Wall on BBC was hosted by Dale Winton, and was taken over by Strictly star Anton Du Beke in 2009.
