Nick Grimshaw to host Channel 4’s Josh Must Win

Josh Must Win is coming to E4 and Channel 4

Nick Grimshaw is to front a major new gameshow format for E4 and Channel 4 that the network is hoping will become their answer to The Traitors.

Originally announced last year under the name “Alan Must Win”, the unscripted series will see a cast of contestants compete in a popularity contest. Steered by three “reality tv legends” including Vicky Pattison, there’s only one aim to the show – Josh must win.

The eight-part series will see celebrities hold all the power and make decisions to manipulate what happens, unbeknown to the contestants.

Announcing the series, Nick Grimshaw wrote on his socials: “So excited to say that I have a brand new show for you! Some time last year we spent time locked away working on a brand new experimental reality show tasked with just one simple mission – Josh Must Win. With the experience of these three reality show legends and my sneaky double edged presenting role, can we make it happen? With no script and no plan this is like no show I’ve ever done before, we had so much fun and I just fell in love in with the whole thing, hopefully you will love it too. We had a real ride. I cannot wait for you to see it! Josh Must Win coming soon to e4 and c4”.

Channel 4 are yet to confirm when the series will air.
