Paddy McGuinness TV game show Catchpoint looking for NI participants

Paddy McGuinness is back with his physical and fun game show Catchpoint, and they're looking for NI folk to take part in the new series.

The premise of the game is simple - don’t drop the ball. In the studio, ten large rectangular LED screens are positioned along the back wall of the Catch Zone.

These screens will display the answers to each question that the players will face. Suspended above the Catch Zone are ten trapdoors - each containing a ball. Only the trapdoor that is located directly above the correct answer screen will open and send a ball plummeting to the ground.

All the players must do is stand in front of the screen that they think is displaying the correct answer, press the button to release the ball and then catch the ball when it drops from the correct answer trapdoor. If the player is standing in the right place, it should be a piece of cake but get it wrong and they’ll have to rely on fast moves and quick reflexes not to drop that ball.

12 Yard Productions are now casting for the action packed, physical game show Catchpoint and they're keen to hear from people from across the country to take part, including those in NI.

A spokesperson for the production company said: "We’re looking for fun, competitive and confident TEAMS OF TWO PEOPLE from the same household or support bubble.

"Applicants must be legally resident and currently living in the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man.

"The closing date for returning application forms is midnight on 5 November 2020. We reserve the right to extend the closing date at our sole discretion."

You can apply online today here and applicants must be aged 18 or over.
