The show, called The Time It Takes<\/em>, asks contestants to answer as many questions as they can in a given period of time. But instead of answering questions against the clock, they must pick their own timer from a series of silly challenges performed by celebrities. “Would it take longer to suck up 5,000 frozen peas using a vacuum cleaner than to take the wrappers off ten CDs?” might be one of the choices.\r\n\r\nThe show’s format was already in development for the BBC, hosted by British comedian Joe Lycett<\/strong>, and has been commissioned for eight episodes<\/a> in the UK. The first series of the UK version is set to be filmed in Glasgow on July 30th. Since the set and crew will already in place, it created an opportunity for the producers to record a test version for the American market with Craig as host. The show is seeking American contestants who are in Scotland<\/a> this month. They’ll pitch the idea in the U.S., hoping to land either on a single network or in syndication.\r\n\r\nCraig won two Emmy awards as the host of the syndicated Celebrity Name Game<\/em> from 2014-2017. We’ll be watching to see if the new game show gets a green light, and keep you up to date.\r\n\r\nFilm Wrapping This Week<\/strong><\/span>\r\n\"\"Filming for Kathie Lee Gifford<\/strong>‘s upcoming movie Love Me To Death<\/em>, co-starring Craig, is wrapping up this week in Scotland. The project will now move into post-production, including editing and preparation for promotion. Kathie Lee has said she hopes it will be released in time for Christmas. One of its producers, Mad Men<\/em> creator Matthew Weiner<\/strong>, has told Scottish newspapers The National<\/a>, the Lochside Press<\/a> and television network STV<\/a> they have enjoyed filming in Scotland.\r\n\r\nMeanwhile, Gifford has continued to send quick video clips to the Today Show, talking about her experience, including chatting between scenes<\/a>, enjoying the sights<\/a>, and introducing another co-star of the film<\/a>, Elizabeth Hurley<\/strong>.\r\n\r\nHere To Help<\/strong><\/span>\r\nCraig’s 2013 stand up comedy special I’m Here To Help<\/em> is now available on the Starz cable network through their prime video service<\/a>.\r\n\r\nMick Dances<\/strong><\/span>\r\nIn this monologue from The Late Late Show<\/em>, Craig talks about an Ikea wedding, Mick Jaggar<\/strong> and ballet.\r\n\r\nVideo courtesy: YouTube<\/span>\r\n
