ITV orders a second series

Irish comedy duo The Rubberbandits are to commentate on a second series of ITV2's Almost Impossible Game Show.

The broadcaster has announced that the show has been recommissioned for a new fun of six episodes next month. And comedians Blindboy Boatclub and Mr Chrome will again provide the voiceover.

In a statement they said: 'The Almost Impossible Game Show is a probing exegesis of the human condition, which challenges traditional boundaries of societal interaction via the combined mediums of lycra and falling downing. We have no doubt that it will be shortlisted for a Turner Prize, as a Bafta is not an appropriate mantle of endowment for this work of vital art.'

Those taking part are give 50 attempts to complete five ridiculous challenges. New games for 2016 include Candle Scream, in which contestants must put out a candle by yelling at it.
