Tower of Ten (20×60′) will be produced by UK prodco Initial, part of Endemol Shine Group, and sees teams of five people answer questions relating to top-10 lists, with the potential jackpot being £100,000 (US$129,030).

It will be presented by Davis, who has appeared in TV series such as Life’s Too Short as well as feature films including Willow, Harry Potter and Star Wars.

Mirella Breda, MD of Initial, said: “Tower of Ten takes our obsession with top-10 lists and turns it into a new, highly addictive play-along quiz for the whole family to enjoy.”

The programme was commissioned by ITV director of daytime Helen Warner and daytime commissioning editors Clare Ely and Jane Beacon.
