Hosts - Magic & ?
Date - October 26th 8.30pm
Contestants - 6

Another brand new shot to meet the Gameshow Marathon lineup, Going for Gold will find the brains of the United Kingdom, and Ireland. Basically, each contestant will be from a diffrent area, and they will be quizzed, untill we finally crown the winner, who will win 5 Karma Points, and enter the Semi Finals!

I am looking for contestants who are from the South of England*, the North of England*, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and The Republic of Ireland.


*If possible, England will be one whole, and we will have a contestant from another country.

The First Round
In the first round, the contestants will be given a general knowledge question, and the first person to answer will then be given a category, of which the next question will relate to. They will also be given a option - if they want a two or three point question - depending on how hard the question is.

Then, the first three contestants on 6 points will enter round two, the other three being eliminated already!

The Second Round
The remaing three contestants will then be asked to pick one category - from three, and they must correctly answer as many of these questions as possible, within a four minute space. For each question they got wrong, their scores return to zero.

The Third Round
In the final round two contestants will again be tested on their speed. The two contestants will be asked 'What am I?' and 'Who am I?' style questions, with clues regularly being posted. BUT, for each detail posted, the maximum 6 points for answering the question will slowly decrease by one point for every clue.

At the end of this round, the winning contestant will be crowned!
It may seem complicated now, but it will be ever so simple then!
