New series being done this year with Richard Ayoade, in a new setup, not the set used for the Stephen Merchant celebrity charridy one off show. 20 episodes ordered, including celebrity charridy shows.

Hopefully they have room for a proper version of the set, is 30K square feet enough?

The only true Crystal Maze involves Richard O’Brien, anything else isn't going to be as good. Let's face it - between the randomness and his often barely concealed frustration with the contestants he's the one that made it work.

This new one may well have plenty of sarcasm but I'm not sure it will have the energy.

A sign of the times we live in. Not bad so far, I'm glad they didn't change the format, it's like greeting an old friend.

programme was great. i was rather disappointed in how the crystal dome looked, a cheap crappy stage. the original was so much better as it was surrounded by a moat.

Makes me smile how stupid some celebrities are. Wouldn't mind being a £1 behind them though.
Thought it was alright last night.
