Red Arrow International: “Decimate” travels to Spain’s Veralia
Munich, December 11, 2014. Production company
Veralia has picked up remake rights to quiz show "Decimate" for
Spain. Originally created by Hugh Rycroft and co-developed and
produced by Red Arrow Entertainment's CPL Productions, "Decimate"
was recently commissioned by the BBC, where actor, singer and
comedian Shane Richie will host.
"Decimate" sees a team of three contestants fight to maintain a
wall of cash over four rounds. With every wrong answer their total
is 'decimated' - reduced by 10 percent. When will the wall come
crashing down?
Carlo Boserman, CEO of Veralia, says: "'Decimate' is the perfect
show for a daily slot in Spain, with tense and dynamic and a format
that the whole family can enjoy."
Axel Böhm, Senior Vice President Sales Europe at Red Arrow
International, says: "'Decimate' is an exciting new quiz show
format that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats - we're
delighted with this partnership. I'm convinced that Veralia will
make an excellent adaptation for Spain!"
About "Decimate"
A team of three players must answer questions in order to preserve
as much cash as possible. Each time a player answers a question
incorrectly, the prize money is "decimated". The cash left in the
wall, after all three team members have played, will be what they
go on to play for in the final round.
