How to apply for The 1% Club

Sadly applications are now closed for The 1% Club.

The show's first series has already been pre-recorded and will air in April 2022 on ITV, so the contestants were chosen a while ago.

But if the show proves to be a hit for ITV, they will no doubt re-open applications.

If they do, you must be over 18 to enter.

What is The 1% Club?

In The 1% Club, 100 contestants begin every show – but to make it to the end and win the top prize of up to £100,000, contestants must correctly answer a question only 1% of the country would get right.

Each contestant starts with £1,000 and one free pass, but if they answer incorrectly, they are out and their grand goes into the prize pot.

Beginning with questions that 90% of the country got right, based on a sample of answers given by 1,000 people across Britain, and building up step by step to puzzlers smaller and smaller percentages answered correctly, each time contestants flunk their answers, the prize money swells.

As the questions get harder and the contestants numbers dwindle, the host breaks the tension with his quick-fire wit, teasing the contestants as their brains do somersaults in the battle to make it to the end of the show and a shot at the prize pot.

Who is the host of The 1% Club?

The show is hosted by comedian and actor Lee Mack.

He is best known for writing and starring in his hit BBC sitcom, Not Going Out.

Lee has also hosted many panel shows including They Think It's All Over, Have I Got News For You and Never Mind the Buzzcocks.

Speaking about The 1% Club, he told ITV: "If, like me, your lack of general knowledge frustrates you when doing quizzes, then watch the 1% Club. That way, like me, you can instead be frustrated by your lack of logic.

"Great contestants, loads of cash to win, and guaranteed ‘I can’t believe you couldn’t work that one out Dad!’ moments to cause family disputes. I love it!”
