A brand new quiz format is set to air on BBC One in the form of The Tournament.
Hosted by Alex Scott, it’s the ultimate knockout competition, where eight players battle each other on the 'Tournament Run' in a series of exciting tug-of-war quiz matches as they attempt to knock their opponents out of the game and steal their cash.
One player will succeed to the end where they will have the chance to double their money on the 'Golden Run'.

Alex Scott is a former professional footballer and is now a television presenter and pundit.
The show will be Alex's first time hosting a quiz.
Alex said: "I’m hoping viewers will love the high energy it brings and watching all the fantastic contestants battle their way through the competition.
"It’s a show full of strategy and risk, where favourites can be overthrown and underdogs can end up top dog!"
The show, which is filmed in Glasgow, was a hard one for Alex to accept.
"At first, I was apprehensive because it’s new territory for me, but I love a challenge as a broadcaster," she said.
"This opportunity meant I could really be ‘me’, show my personality and explore a new role - and that really excited me!"
The Tournament will air on BBC One on weekdays at 2.15pm, from November 8.
