Channel 4 has recommissioned The Bank Job for a second run.

The George Lamb gameshow will return in February, having already aired six episodes in early January.

The format, a cross between Deal or No Deal and Take It or Leave It, sees two contestants battle it out to win money inside giant vaults.

Justin Gorman, head of entertainment at Channel 4, confirmed in a statement: "The Bank Job is a brand new kind of game show and we're very excited to be bringing it back for a second run, once again combining online and TV for a truly gripping programme."

The Bank Job's online game has been played over 4.6 million times to date.

However, the programme fell below 1 million viewers when shown on Channel 4 between January 2 and January 7.
