Returning: Win the Week

ABC quiz show Win the Week returns to ABC for a new series in early August.

Hosted by Alex Lee (The Checkout, The Feed) along with regular panellist Craig Reucassel (The Chaser, War on Waste), it tests celebrities and regular Aussies on current news stories.

This season has new games and new celebrities including Wendy Harmer, Mark Humphries, Tony Armstrong, Nazeem Hussain and returning champion Ellen Fanning.

This season instead of having fixed “Stay or Betray” moments, players can also hit the “Betray” button at any time.

Host Alex Lee said “Contestants mentioned wanting to remove Craig from their team earlier, so we’ve introduced the “Betray” button at any time during the show. It’s complete chaos, but so much fun.”

Producer and regular panellist Craig Reucassel said, “My therapist is really looking forward to me returning to this game where I am betrayed on a weekly basis.

“It’s great that team captains can betray at any time. This way the celebrities can get the kind of immediate negative feedback they would normally only receive on social media.”

Auditions: Win the Week is now casting for contestants.
