Bruce Forsyth is to host a new BBC quiz show named after one of his trademark catchphrases, the corporation has announced.
Beginning in the New Year, Didn't They Do Well? will test the general knowledge of contestants in a "unique new way" by using a wealth of classic TV clips from the archives.
In each episode, three teams of two players will battle their way through four rounds of questions will that tease them on their breadth of general knowledge, before reaching the show's finale, a race against the clock to build up a substantial prize fund of anything up to £36,000.
"I'm very excited to be doing this show, and I'm looking forward to working for the BBC again," said Forsyth today.
Didn't They Do Well? will air each week on BBC One in a slot yet to be determined.
