Here’s all you need to know about Channel 4’s new reality series Rise & Fall.
Hosted by Greg James, the new show comes from the makers of Race Across The World, Gogglebox and The Traitors.
Rise and Fall is a game about what it takes to get to the top – how to win power, how to keep hold of it and how to use it to influence others.
Sixteen contestants from all backgrounds across the UK come together to compete to win up to £100,000. They start as equals but soon find themselves either in a position of power as a Ruler or as a powerless Grafter.
Greg James oversees the action as the Grafters work hard to complete a series of gruelling challenges to build up the prize fund. The Rulers must encourage the Grafters to work harder, but if they push them too hard, they might find themselves toppled from power.
Watch Rise & Fall on TV and online
Rise & Fall currently airs Monday-Thursday nights at 10PM on Channel 4. The series runs for just over three weeks with a total of 18 episodes.
In the FINAL episode tonight (13 April), Eddy, Matt, Moses, Ramona, Rossi and Sydney are the final six Rulers following Isaak’s fall back to the Basement. One of them will be crowned the winner of Rise and Fall and take home the prize fund.
In the last Work Shift the Grafters, along with the returning fallen Rulers, will be working as brick layers. They’ll be working for individual Rulers to increase the prize fund by collecting bricks. The Ruler who has the least bricks collected on their behalf will be eliminated from the competition and will not be in the final battle to win.
The Rulers must pick the who they want to work for them with the other Grafters choosing where their allegiances lie to create teams for each Ruler. Which Ruler will fall at the final hurdle?
In the Red Room, the remaining five Rulers must go head-to-head to prove themselves as the best Ruler and most deserving of the final prize fund, totalling £85,610. As they eliminate each other one by one, it comes down to two. Who will win Rise and Fall?
As well as watching on TV you can watch the series online and catch up on All 4.
Speaking about the show, Greg said: “I’ve been waiting for a TV show like this to come along, to be the ringmaster of, because I love doing big stunts and mad ideas and concepts, but I’ve never really done one on TV. I’ve always loved shows like this where the host is allowed to get amongst it, and I love the idea of getting to know the contestants.
“It’s a real treat to launch a new show on Channel 4. It’s the home of some of my favourite comedies, comedians and presenters and it’s a great, innovative place that shares my ambitions for creative, daring and sometimes very silly ideas.”
