Host George Lamb returns with a brand new run of the high stakes game show this February on Channel 4.

Contestants will aim to pull off the ultimate heist, live from a real bank in the heart of London, as they play a high jeopardy game of skill, knowledge and luck, hoping to walk away with a life changing sum of money.

In order to apply for a place on the show, contestants must tackle the online game to unlock the exclusive application form at www.channel4.com/bankjob. Last series saw over 4 million head-to-head games played by over 200,000 hopefuls. And this series gets even tougher as aspiring contestants must win three head-to-head tournament games in order to qualify and have the chance to play for real money, live on Channel 4.

Every night four players will be taken to a bank vault which holds safety deposit boxes packed with thousands of pounds of real money. Once inside, contestants will be competing to select safety deposit boxes and win the most money. But they face a major dilemma – stay in the vault and risk being locked in when the time runs out – or leave and risk winning the least money. Either way they could be eliminated. In a test of general knowledge, courage and nerve, who will get rich – and get out?

The first series saw 20 players enter the bank vault across the week, culminating in a dramatic finale in which a total prize fun of £467,500 was won.
