Cult gameshow The Crystal Maze is to be revived by ITV, a report has claimed.

The new show will have a similar format to the '90s classic but feature Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden as host, according to The Sun.

It is also thought that celebrity contestants will tackle the difficult puzzles and physical challenges rather than members of the public.

A source said: "ITV are huge fans of Amanda and are looking at a number of different gameshow concepts, but this is certainly the one they are excited about. They are spending a lot of money and hope it will surpass - and blow away - the old Crystal Maze."

The original version of The Crystal Maze ran on Channel 4 from 1990 to 1995. Richard O'Brien was the programme's first presenter, while Ed Tudor-Pole fronted the later series.
