Airdate: The Cube

Nine will air a game show clone of Minute to Win It from the UK, The Cube, in place of Celebrity Snging Bee.

Nine will air a game show clone of Minute to Win It from the UK, The Cube from ITV.

The show sees contestants entering a huge cube to play “simple” challenges that increase in difficulty as the money stakes increase. The show actually preceded Minute to Win It.

A US pilot was also filmed, hosted by Neil Patrick Harris.

The Cube offers contestants the chance to win a top prize of £250,000 by completing challenges from within a 4x4x4 meter cube. Tonight Taxi driver Dean Chase and air hostess Rhian Tippett enter The Cube. Hosted by Phillip Schofield.

The show will replace Celebrity Singing Bee from January 1st, which means not all episodes are likely to air.

It airs from 7:30pm Saturday January 1st.

  1. So no slicing into meat-pieces and acid to the face a la the Canadian movie of the same name? *Disappointing*.
    And isn’t that a pic of Shaun Micallef looking very grumpy?

  2. I think it should be noted the the original version of the Cube was before Minute to Win. Minute to Win it started on NBC in 2010, where as the Cube started on ITV in 2009. This makes Minute the clone.
