Cult gameshow The Crystal Maze is to be revived by ITV, a report has claimed.

The new show will have a similar format to the '90s classic but feature Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden as host, according to The Sun.

It is also thought that celebrity contestants will tackle the difficult puzzles and physical challenges rather than members of the public.

A source said: "ITV are huge fans of Amanda and are looking at a number of different gameshow concepts, but this is certainly the one they are excited about. They are spending a lot of money and hope it will surpass - and blow away - the old Crystal Maze."

The original version of The Crystal Maze ran on Channel 4 from 1990 to 1995. Richard O'Brien was the programme's first presenter, while Ed Tudor-Pole fronted the later series.

This is exactly what I thought when I read it. It's the simplicity of those old shows that made them what they are. Introducing huge stage/lighting/sound and visuals is what makes it essentially a new gameshow, and ruins the legacy of what was!

There will always be the old Glad and the old CM. If people want to see them they can watch Challenge like I do all day and enjoy

Amanda Holden doesnt suit the show

Amanda is such an irratating bitch tbh, I hate her and everything to do with BGT.

I use to love Crystal Maze, the guy with the bald head was a legend, Amanda will fail.

[Nicky.]

I don't care who hosts it, I just love the challenges! Xx

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

This is like my favourite TV show ever, get the **** out!

I wrote to Richard O'Brien when I was a kid asking if they could do a kids version of the show he wrote back and said that the show was coming to an end soon and something like that...probably wasn't even him but still, icon.
