Contestant Call: The Hive

Quick post to let you know a contestant call has gone out for a new show (tentatively) called The Hive (email casting@saltbeeftv.com for an application form). From the press release:

"The series of 13x30min episodes is a smart, play-along quiz where the answer to every question is literally staring contestants in the face. The Hive is the quiz where knowing the right answer isn’t enough because all answers are hidden in a hive, testing players’ general knowledge and mental agility as they race against the clock to find the answer."

It's for BBC Four, so presumably will be at the, well, at the BBC Four end of the spectrum. Plus the flyer (below) spells 'crossword' with a hyphen, so you can already tell this a highbrow affair.
