What happens

House of Games, credited as Richard Osman's House of Games for its first nine series, is a British quiz show produced by Banijay UK Productions subsidiary Remarkable Entertainment for the BBC. The show is played on a weekly basis, with four celebrities playing on five consecutive days to win daily prizes, and the weekly prize of being crowned as "House of Games" champion. Points are accrued depending on where each celebrity finishes on each day and the points are doubled on Friday's show. Richard Osman has hosted the show since its start in 2017. From late 2026 it will be hosted by actor Michael Sheen. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
