Ant and Dec on Limitless Win

What can you tease about this year’s series?

Ant: More drama, more tension, more fun, and more wins than ever before!

Dec: Plus of course more ‘shout at the telly’ questions which the whole family can have a go at.

Ant: More contestants climb over a million pounds on our ladder than we’ve ever had before. And big wins. What can I say about the big wins Dec?

Dec: Not too much! Although safe to say, it’s a groundbreaking series in more ways than one.

In S2, we saw the introduction of the new lifeline ‘Take Two with Ant and Dec’, which allowed you to get involved in the game, and offer help to contestants. Would you say you’re experts at the game now? How have you fared with your Take Two answers this series?

Ant: Well we are better. We’re more prepared. Season 2 was a bit of a shock, wasn’t it?

Dec: Yes, my heart still does sink every time the Take Two lifeline comes up.

Ant: We’ve only got 30 seconds and it takes us 20 seconds to get round the desk as we’ve only got little legs!

Dec: The pressure is huge when you’re playing for these contestants to get them further up the ladder and possibly win serious amounts of cash.

Ant: But I’m proud to say we did, without giving too much away. We did get some spot on and help some contestants win a considerable amount of money.

Dec: So thankfully we’ve got some really random knowledge up our sleeves.

Each series features brand new relatable questions for audiences to play along with at home. Have you had memorable favourites for you this time around?

Ant: Yes, but we wouldn’t wanna give anything away. Because if we tell you contestants, then as soon as they walk out you’ll know how it goes.

Dec: Our favourite questions are things like, how many segments in a Toblerone, or how many holes in a potato waffle? Those kind of questions really tickle our fancy! Ant: And the good thing is, in this series we’ve got more questions like that. So if I was you to be prepared, if you wanna play along, just get a tape measure and measure things around your house.

Dec: Really pay attention to all the chocolates and sweets and things you’ve been eating over Christmas, cause you never know you might need to say how many Matchmakers are in a box?

This is the first TV quiz with a limitless jackpot. Are you any closer to bankrupting ITV this year?

Ant: In a word – yes! We’ve had more people climb up the ladder than ever before and this series sees the biggest win in the show’s history. Can I say that?!

Dec: I think you just did! There were a lot of accountants around the studio looking even greyer than normal!
