TV fans have taken to social media to express their desire for the return of the popular game show 'Hole in the Wall' after an old clip went viral. The show, which aired in the noughties, was abruptly cancelled after just 21 episodes in 2009.
Back by Popular Demand
'Hole in the Wall' has garnered a new wave of attention after old clips resurfaced on social media, prompting fans to call for its revival. The BBC show featured celebrities contorting themselves to fit through approaching holes in a wall, all in the hopes of winning a £10,000 cash prize.
A Unique Format
Based on a Japanese game show, 'Hole in the Wall' pitted two teams of celebrities against each other as they navigated through rapidly approaching walls with strategically placed holes. The goal was to avoid falling into the swimming pool behind the wall. Clad in skintight lycra catsuits, the celebrities showcased their agility and skill in order to secure a prize for their chosen charity.
A Brief Run
Hosted by Anton du Beke in its first series, 'Hole in the Wall' saw former cricketer Darren Gough as the team captain. The show returned for a second series with du Beke as the host once again, but this time with former rugby player Austin Healey and actor Joe Swash as team captains. Despite its popularity, the BBC made the decision to cancel the show after just two series.
Fans Make Their Plea
Following the resurgence of old clips on TikTok, fans have flooded social media with requests for the BBC to bring back 'Hole in the Wall'. Many have expressed their love for the show and deem it the "best game show to ever exist". One fan even urged BBC One to "reboot Hole in The Wall ASAP".
The future of 'Hole in the Wall' remains uncertain, but the overwhelming support from fans has certainly caught the attention of BBC bosses. Will we see a revival of this beloved game show? Only time will tell.
