You Bet!

You Bet! is a British game show based around the format of the German show Wetten, dass..? developed by Frank Elstner. Richard Hearsey was the first producer of series one which was recorded at Shepperton Studios in late 1987 and transmitted on ITV in 1988. You Bet! ran on ITV, mostly on Saturday nights but sometimes on Fridays, between 20 February 1988 and 12 April 1997, initially hosted by Bruce Forsyth from 1988 to 1990, then by Matthew Kelly from 1991 to 1995 and finally by Darren Day from 1996 to 1997. It was replaced the following year by Don't Try This at Home!, which emulated the challenges of You Bet!, but were considerably more risky and dangerous. A close successor debuted in 2016 with Go for It!
