After captivating viewers each Saturday night last year, the third series of The Hit List was one of the top 10 Entertainment series on BBC One in 2020 - with a series average of 3.8m across nine episodes - including its Celebrity Specials. In the new series, viewers can look forward shouting more answers at the telly and cheering along its contestants who are all competing to take home the coveted top prize.

Hosting duo Marvin and Rochelle Humes say: “We are so pleased that a fourth series of The Hit List will be returning to BBC One. As hosts, it’s a show we love to present but we also love to play along ourselves! We are grateful for all of the positive feedback audiences give to the show and we hope that everyone enjoys watching it as much as we enjoy making it.”

Karen Smith, Executive Producer of The Hit List, says: “We’re ‘Happier’ than Marshmello and Bastille to be back for series four and with even more celebrity episodes. It’s the perfect springboard into Saturday nights, play-along, sing-along and dance-along with one of the most tense end games on telly.”

Jo Wallace, Acting Controller Entertainment Commissioning at the BBC, says: “I am so pleased to say that a fourth series of The Hit List will be returning to BBC One. With its high energy, fun nature and the ability to get the whole family involved, The Hit List has become a staple Saturday night show.”
