Seven reveals its first look at The 1% Club

Seven has revealed its first look at its new game show, The 1% Club, coming soon to Seven and 7Plus.

Hosted by comedian Australian Jim Jefferies, the show promises to deliver an entertaining and hilarious experience as people of all ages and backgrounds find out if they are of the first order.
 
Unlike most quiz shows, general knowledge isn't what it takes to excel in The 1% Club, but logic and common sense.

Jefferies brings his trademark wit as host, injecting each episode with a healthy dose of laughter.
 
The perfect fit for this boundary-pushing quiz show, Jefferies is known for his irreverent style and ability to find humour in even the most controversial topics.

One hundred contestants begin every show, but to make it to the end and win the top prize, contestants must correctly answer a question only 1% of the country would get right.

Navigating wordplays, everyday facts and pop culture references, contestants are first asked a question that 90% of the country got right (based on a sample of answers given by people across Australia) and then progress to questions that smaller and smaller percentages answered correctly. 

To get to the end, and have their shot at up to $100,000, contestants will have to bring their A-game to win big and join the elite ranks of the 1%.
 
The 1% Club is produced by BBC Studios Australia and New Zealand from a format created by Magnum Media and distributed by BBC Studios.
 
The show launched in the UK on ITV earlier in 2022 in a primetime Saturday night slot where it is hosted by comedian Lee Mack, and has already been commissioned for a second series.
 
The format has also been licenced to France Televisions in France, Kan in Israel, RTL in the Netherlands, Atresmedia in Spain and SevenOne Entertainment Group in Germany.
 
Jefferies, who is also a regular fixture on the international comedy circuit and is currently touring his sell-out stand-up show, said: “To say I’m excited to host The 1% Club for Seven is an understatement! I’ve always loved game shows and this one is brilliant, I can’t wait to get started.”
