What is The Wheel all about? Format and more explored

The UK version of The Wheel began airing on the BBC in November 2020 and has garnered immense popularity from the audience, thanks to its unique format and some very famous celebrity guests who graced the show and participated in the cash prize.

As such, NBC's The Wheel is the British adaptation of the game show. Each episode of the hit series runs for an hour and is created by UK-based comedian and television host Michael McIntyre.

Each hour-long episode of The Wheel features six celebrity guests as they try to help the three contestants with their questions in the best way possible. The three participants will take the celebrity's help to answer questions and compete against each other to win the grand cash prize of over $100,000.

The contestant at the center of the wheel chooses a category to answer the question and gets help from one of the six celebrities. However, the contestant will not have a say in which celebrity they can choose, as the chosen celebrity will be determined by the wheel.

Whichever celebrity the wheel points to has to help the contestant with the answer, whether it is in their area of expertise or not. If the participant is able to answer the question correctly, they will stay in the game. If not, they miss their turn and their fellow competitors will get a shot. Interestingly, they can rejoin when the other two contestants get their answers incorrect.

The last player left on The Wheel will receive the cash prize earned during the game.


The episodes will also be available to stream on Peacock.
