Time Is Money

Hosted by Sara Davies, the quiz presents contestants with their prize money before they have even answered a question. From that point they must race against the clock to retain their cash, making timing as crucial as knowledge in the game.

The programme is a quiz‑style game show fronted by Sara Davies. As the presenter, she guides the contestants through each round, explaining the rules and keeping the pace brisk. The format centres on a simple yet unusual twist that sets it apart from typical quiz formats. In each episode, participants are handed their prize money before they’ve even attempted to answer a question. This means the cash sits in their hands while the question is read, creating an immediate sense of stakes. The challenge then becomes answering correctly within a tight timeframe; if they succeed, they retain the money, but a wrong answer or a delay can see the prize slip away. The core of the show is the race against the clock. Contestants must think quickly, balancing speed with accuracy, because the ticking timer is the only thing standing between them and a loss of the cash they’ve already been given. This pressure‑filled dynamic drives the action, turning each question into a sprint where the participants’ ability to act fast determines whether they walk away with their winnings or see them vanish.
