''Hole in the Wall'' was an Australian television game show hosted by Jules Lund, based on the Japanese game show ''Brain Wall''. In the show, contestants are required to fit though holes in a polystyrene wall that moves towards them. Produced by FremantleMedia, the show began airing on the Nine Network from 6 August 2008.〔 〕 ==Format== Each episode features two teams consisting of three celebrity contestants, with each team competing for a charity. The contestants, fitted with hard hats and spandex, stand on a rectangular strip called the "Play Area" as a polystyrene wall moves towards them. The aim is to assume a position that will best allow their bodies to fit through a shape or a number of shapes cut into the wall. The wall measures by and travels along a straight path that approaches at varying speeds. If contestants fail to fit through the hole, they are pushed back into a deep pool of water behind them. The game consists of four rounds plus a final round that decides the winner. The first round has three contestants on the strip. A point is awarded to each contestant who fits through the hole. The second round has two contestants. For two points to be awarded, both contestants must fit through the hole. The third round is variable in the number of players and the scenario played, differing in each episode. For example, scenarios have included facing the wall blindfolded, being forced to rely on the studio audience to guide a contestant, and facing the wall with either a prop or a guest contestant. These guests have included members of the audience and Jules Lund himself. The fourth round sees all three contestants having to face a wall travelling at double speed. Five points are awarded if all contestants fit through the hole, but otherwise no points are scored. The last round has the team with the most points being given the choice of either facing the wall or forcing the other team to do so. The winner is based on the success of the team that is chosen to face the wall. This brings up controversy since all the points accumulated are worth nothing and the winner of the last round wins the whole show. German TV company RTL Television, broadcast two episodes of a spin-off called ''Ab durch die Wand'' in 2008, then it was cancelled. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hole in the Wall (Australian game show)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
