Impossible

Rick Edwards presents a quiz where contestants compete for the chance to win £10,000. The competition is high‑stakes, because a single “impossible” answer will knock a player out of the game for the rest of the day, ending their chance at the prize.

The programme is a quiz‑style game show presented by Rick Edwards. As the host, Edwards guides participants through a series of questions, setting the tone for a competition that centres on both knowledge and the risk of sudden elimination. Contestants take part with the aim of securing a £10,000 prize. Throughout the episode they answer a succession of queries, but a single “impossible” answer looms over the game. If anyone selects that particular response, they’re knocked out for the rest of the day, ending their chance to continue. The presence of that one impossible answer adds a distinctive twist to the format. It creates a clear point of tension, because any participant could be the one to trigger the knockout. Edwards’ role is to keep the action moving while highlighting the stakes attached to each question. By structuring the competition around a solitary, fatal mistake, the show balances the lure of a substantial cash prize with the threat of an immediate exit. Those who avoid the impossible answer stay in the running, while the day‑long elimination rule ensures that each decision carries weight.
