Stephen Mulhern’s ITV game show Rolling In It is back for a second series this summer.
The format, which saw peak audiences of more than 4 million, involves contestants teaming up with celebrities to compete in a game of chance with big money prizes to be won.
The pairs must answer general knowledge questions in order to win coins which they then roll down a moving conveyor belt towards slots worth varying sums of money.
If the coins make it in to these slots, they will bank the money – but there is also a ‘bankrupt’ slot, meaning they could lose everything, and a ‘steal’ slot, allowing one duo to take another’s jackpot.
One pair will make it through to the final round where one coin determines whether or not the contestant goes home ‘rolling in it’, winning a huge cash prize.
Series 2 of Rolling In It airs Saturday nights on ITV.

Other guests featuring over the series include a pregnant Katherine Ryan.
Stephen confessed: “I didn’t realise how heavily pregnant she was. She was getting so excited when the coins were rolling and I go ‘you’ve got to be careful’.
“After I asked her how pregnant she was and how many months she has got left until she has the baby, she said two weeks and I was like ‘what!’. That could of transformed the show, we could have had our first Rolling In It baby.”
