Rob Brydon's The Floor renewed for second series
Applications are open now!
Following the success of the first series earlier this year, ITV/STV game show The Floor, hosted by Rob Brydon, has officially been renewed for a second instalment!
First created in The Netherlands, The Floor has been adapted around the world, with versions in countries like USA, Spain, Poland, Italy, Greece, France and Australia, with the UK series arriving on ITV/STV at the start of 2026.
What is The Floor?
The Floor is a trivia game show which sees 100 contestants each start on their own square of a giant floor grid.
Each contestant has a specialist category, and they challenge other players to head-to-head trivia duels. When someone wins, they take over their challenger's square, expanding their territory across the floor.
The goal is to control as much of the grid as possible and ultimately win the game.
Can I apply?
Bosses are now on the hunt for contestants for series two.
The application website states: 'South Shore are casting for Series 2 of ITV’s hit game show The Floor — a high-stakes general knowledge battle where every move counts, hosted by Rob Brydon.
'Whether you’re obsessed with Taylor Swift, Antiques, Baking or World Flags – if you know a subject inside out and have a competitive streak, we want to hear from you!
'On The Floor, you’ll begin on a square with a subject you know about and throughout the show, you’ll either need to answer questions on your own subject or challenge opponents in their subject to win their squares and take over more of The Floor.
'The questions will mostly be picture-based — you’ll be shown an image and must correctly identify what it is.
'At the end of each episode, there’s a cash prize to be won — and in the final episode, the last player in control of The Floor will walk away with £50,000!

Applications are due to close on Friday 5th June 2026.
