With Capital Radio's Sian Welby
Russell Kane and Capital Breakfast DJ Sian Welby are presenting a new quiz app from ITV.
The free-to-play game puts up a £1,000 prize pot daily – shared across 60 players who get all the questions right. That means a prize of £16.67 each, whole bigger jackpots and special prizes from ITV shows are also up for grabs.
Steve Watling, senior vice president of gaming at ITV Studios said the app ‘offers TV quizzers the chance to experience what it would feel like to be in the studio.’
A player will need to answer six questions every day for the chance to win a cash prize. The faster a player locks in a correct answer, the more prize draw entries they can earn
