Amazing Greys is a British game show that aired on ITV, co-hosted by Paddy McGuinness and Angela Rippon.[1][2][3] It was aired from 12 April to 17 May 2014 and ran for six episodes.[4]
A pilot episode was recorded at Fountain Studios in Wembley on 19 September 2013 and presented solely by McGuinness. However, when the first series began filming, Rippon joined as his co-host. It was pre-recorded at The London Studios between 25 February and 20 March 2014.[5]
The show proposes to pair a duo, an 'older star with a younger partner'. The challenger can win £10,000, but in order to win this, the challenger must defeat the 'greys' on two games out of the three played.
