The nostalgia! This nineties classic returns to screens tomorrow night

Nineties kid, listen up!

This Friday night, prepare yourself for the ultimate throwback experience, as classic gameshow, The Crystal Maze, returns to our screens.

The Channel 4 revival will be hosted by comedian Richard Ayoade, best know for his role in The IT Crowd, and will keep the same look and feel as the original show.

The show's re-launch comes after the success of last October's Stand Up To Cancer special with Stephen Merchant and team captain Rio Ferdinand.

According to metro.co.uk, the production crew at Channel 4 have really gone the extra mile and have recorded the new series in a purpose-built 32,500 square foot maze created by the original maze architect, James Dillon.

Much like the original, Richard Ayoade will employ a number of interesting tactics involving a wooden hand to distance himself from the contestants and ensure fairness in the games.

However, the new series does have one major difference.

Instead of groups of six made up of complete strangers, contestants will now apply as a group of five in their quest to tackle the maze.

The first episode will be a celebrity special featuring Vicky Pattison, Louie Spence, Alex Brooker, Lydia Bright, and Ore Oduba, and honestly, we're laughing already.

They will compete for time in the dome where they will have the chance to collect tokens to win money for Stand Up To Cancer.

Rumour has it, a team of karate instructors who appeared on the original show will make an appearance during the series.

Yes, really.

The show will run at an hour-long for 20 episodes

The first instalment of the new-look Crystal Maze will air on Channel 4, Friday June 23 at 9:00pm.
