Programme Overview
Description
It’s the first show to shamelessly invade the privacy of contestants’ wallets and where the winner’s prize money is determined by how much cash their rivals have inside theirs!
A nosey host searches the busy streets for an initial contestant, willing to have their wallet rifled through and game for the opportunity to win more cash. The two then go on the hunt for another contestant – preferably one with a wallet full of cash – so that the prize up for grabs is pleasingly high! The two contenders then go head-to-head, answering a single trivia question that has many possible answers. The first contestant to get stuck, or provide a wrong answer, is out of the game, and the search for the next contestant begins. As soon as a contestant beats three rivals in a row, she/he wins a cash prize equal to the money in all three losers’ wallets!
Pick a Pocket is geared towards hilarious gossip, as contestants make snap judgments about other potential opponents, leading to surprising revelations and unexpected insights into random passersby!
