Auditions: Minute to Win It
Seven is looking for game show contestants who can complete 10 challenges which all escalate in difficulty.

Seven is in pre-production on a local version of NBC game show, Minute to Win It.
Contestants must complete 10 challenges using everyday household items in order to win cash prizes. Each game has a one-minute time limit and escalates in difficulty.
“Can you unravel a roll of toilet paper using only your torso in 60 seconds?” asks the Seven website. It teases that $1m is up for grabs.
Wikipedia reports in the US version, “The contestant is given three lives to last them through the entire game. If the contestant fails to complete the challenge, he or she loses one life, and must replay the challenge from scratch. Any contestant who loses all three lives is eliminated from the game. If the contestant had earned less than $50,000 at the time of elimination, he or she loses everything; contestants that reach the $50,000 level are guaranteed to leave with at least that amount. In addition, after completing a challenge successfully, the contestant can walk away with the money earned so far.”
Games include This Blows, Drop Sink and Clink, Bottoms Up, Wheel of a Deal, Triple Ping Pong and more.
Applicants must be 18 years or over to apply.
Update: Show has ended. No more applications accepted.

i would like to know if the show will be in qld at any time.it is a awsome show well done,would like to know when the next audition please
I would love to audition for ‘minute to win it’, can you audition in melbourne? I love this show!
are you still able to audition for this program???? i think my hubby will do well if he can get on its a game of logical thinking
How do I audition or get in the audience?
this will be a sweet show especially if i get to go on it
Was in the US the last few weeks and this show is fricken hilarious.
Who knows if it will work here…
Also, why is nearly every person who comments on these things so negative. Stop hating life so much.
Potential for a very funny show.
This just reeks of another boring reality flop. How about something decent, like what 9 are doing with Hey Hey. Reinvent one of your successful shows. Haven’t we enough talent to be able to come up with something of our own, instead of following in other countries shadows
It has captured my curiosity….
When do they plan on holding auditions???
@TimJong: If Deal were to get the axe, 7 would use this opportunity, to address some issues with that slot.
I reckon this won’t last 59 seconds.
Yes if you like a bit of light entertainment ‘The Cube’ is more focused and suspenseful than this novelty ripoff.
Shame on Seven for going for the cheap and blatant rip-off rather than the far superior UK original – The Cube.
@ZzzCount: Grant Denyer would probably host this.
It’ll only last a minute.
As much as I hate it, Seven have plenty of cheap factuals to fill 7:30 slots. This reeks of failure.
Any word on a host??
No suggestion of Deal axe. There are plenty of timeslots in a week.
Luke: Sydney based, people selected to be contestants will be flown to Syd.
“Why not bring back press your luck??”
Supermarket Sweep first!
Does this mean Channel Seven are going to axe Deal or No Deal and put Minute to Win It up against Hot Seat at 5.30?? Or are Seven starting a new trend of one hour of game shows starting from 5? If so, Channel Nine probably will recycle one of their old game shows.
Hey David, do you know if this show is based in Melbourne? The site doesn’t say where it is filmed. Thanks. If so, I may sign up.
I came across this show on You Tube last week.. i watched a few clips and was over it very fast.
Why not bring back press your luck??
Sounds interesting
it will be gone a minute. how is the white room going
Why bother Ch 7 the track record with these types of shows on this network is not very good to say the least, just dont bother
Watched this the other week, I like the concept but I think its failing terribly in the US.
I am speechless who makes up these things. Prize money is good though.
