But as fans look forward to episode four on Saturday 3rd February, bosses have announced the show will air at a slightly later time for one week only.
What time is Gladiators on?
Due to the BBC's coverage of the Rugby Six Nations clash between Wales and Scotland, Saturday's episode will air at the slightly late time of 7.10pm on both BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
Since the launch show on Saturday 13th January, the rebooted series of hit 90s gameshow Gladiators has been loved by fans, with many praising the show for keeping the same format as the original.
Hosted by father and son duo Bradley and Barney Walsh, the show sees a number of athletic competitors take on the brand new Gladiators, as they attempt to make it into the next round in classic games such as Duel, The Wall and Gauntlet.
