Holly Willoughby teams back up with co-star for TV return this autumn

As a seasoned television enthusiast with over three decades of captivating content under my belt, I must say that the reunion of the dynamic duo, Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern, on You Bet! is undeniably an exciting prospect. Having grown up watching Wetten Dass? and its British counterpart You Bet!, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgia and anticipation for these upcoming specials this autumn.


The dynamic duo, Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern, are set to join forces again for the beloved game show “You Bet!” This fall, they will be back on your screens with two thrilling installments of the classic challenge series.

In this show, ordinary people showcase their extraordinary skills by taking on incredible tasks, each with the hope of pocketing an impressive monetary reward.

The upcoming episodes promise “extraordinary tasks, jaw-dropping stunts, renowned personalities, and heart-pounding tension”.

Previously this year, Willoughby and Mulhern appeared together on television as co-hosts for Dancing on Ice, taking over after Philip Schofield’s departure from ITV.

In the style reminiscent of Wetten Dass?, You Bet! presents the opportunity for the live studio audience to wager on whether each competitor can successfully accomplish the remarkable tasks presented to them.

If they get it right, points will be awarded to the celebrities’ total depending on the proportion of the studio audience who gave the same response.

Towards the conclusion of the performance, viewers have an opportunity to choose their preferred competitor, who wins £10,000. Additionally, the personality amassing the highest points during the event receives the same amount for their selected charity, whereas the one with the least points faces a final challenge.

“Willoughby expressed great enthusiasm, saying he was thrilled to join this legendary game show alongside the talented Stephen Mulhern.”

I’m excited to witness the amazing talents displayed by the contenders, and find out who among our famous judges will emerge victorious.

As a child, I was captivated by “You Bet!” and now, I’m thrilled beyond words to be co-hosting this fantastic show alongside the remarkable Holly Willoughby. I eagerly anticipate witnessing the grand and awe-inspiring, as well as the unusual and unforeseen talents that the contestants will unveil, hidden in their sleeves.

In the fall season, Katie Rawcliffe, ITV’s Entertainment Commissioning Head, expressed excitement: “You Bet!” is a fantastic addition to our entertainment offerings on ITV and ITVX. We’re overjoyed to have Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern leading this show.
