BBC Bridge of Lie: Edinburgh contestants needed for new series of hit quiz show

Edinburgh contestants are wanted for a brand new series of Ross Kemp's popular gameshow, Bridge of Lies.

Bridge of Lies sees teams of contestants compete for a cash prize by crossing a bridge made up of stepping stones across the studio floor. Each stepping stone has a different option, and the players must try to get from A to B by stepping on the truths and avoiding the lies, or risk falling off the bridge and out of the game.

The show has been recommissioned for a second series on BBC One, with 25 episodes planned. Host Ross Kemp is excited to see the series begin again, and is encouraging locals from the capital to take part.

Ross said: "I felt sure we hadn’t seen the last of that formidable bridge! Hosting this show, with all its jeopardy, tension and hilarious moments, was one of the most enjoyable parts of my year and I’m delighted that it’s been recommissioned by the BBC.

“The Bridge of Lies is tailor-made for a celeb version so I’m looking forward to putting teams of famous faces to the test. My main tip for them? No matter who you are or what you do, the bridge makes allowances for no one!”

In order to apply, the producers are searching for teams of four to send their details in to take part in the show. Friends, family or even work colleagues, everybody can take part - as long as you are over the age of 18.

The closing date for applications is Sunday, August 21 2022. You can apply for the show via the website here, or email for more information here.
