Contestants will include well-known personalities like Olympic swimmer Emily Seebohm and celebrity chef Julie Goodwin. Each night, a winner will receive quirky prizes, such as unique kitchen items. At the end of the week, the top player will be awarded a special trophy. The show is produced by Endemol Shine Australia and has been commissioned by the ABC. The original format was created by Remarkable Entertainment and is represented globally by Banijay Entertainment.
