The Void

This show is just Wipe out without the fun, not really funny or interesting.

My wife and I found it a reasonably entertaining show. It has a format not unlike Wipeout but done indoors and not as expansive. The degree of difficulty is high but a few manage to do surprisingly well. The presenters are more like excited spectators and they don't do funny comments but at the same time don't come across as trying too hard to be something they are not.

The only perfect way I can describe The Void is like Total Wipeout if you gave it a similar indoor budget to Ninja Warrior UK but sucked out all the fun, all the entertainment factor and all the charm and even replaced the big red balls with a series of ridiculously challenging obstacle courses that hardly anyone would be able to attempt in their life.

Fleur East and Ashley Banjo try ridiculously too hard to replicate the same chemistry as Ant and Dec or Ben Shephard and Chris Kamara.

Plus, the egos of some (but not all) of the contestants taking part are just so fingernails-scratching-on-a-chalkboard levels of obnoxious and irritating that it's actually quite hilarious.

Overall, The Void is reasonably entertaining but otherwise, just stick to watching Total Wipeout or Ninja Warrior UK, you will have a much, much better time with those.

6/10.

Well I didn't think Saturday nights could get worse. This game show has proven it. I would not recommend this show to anyone. It's absolutely terrible. I wouldn't even give it a one star.

Oh dear ITV. This is poor.

Why they keep persisting with giving people with very little presenting experience high profile jobs I don't know.

Not that Banjo and East are particularly well protected by a format that's terrible.

ITV are unfortunately a network that seem to persist with programmes that clearly aren't working, so I fully expect this to stick around for a while.
