Format

Round 1

Two contestants, usually a couple, have to choose who they think are the most attractive when presented with photos of two random individuals (the people in these pictures are also usually in the audience). If their choice matches with that of the audience, they win money.

Round 2

The contestants then have to choose who is the most attractive out of two celebrities, again winning cash if their opinion matches that of the audience.

Round 3

A special guest (of which there are four usually consisting of a stranger, friends, workmates, and sometimes a celebrity) joins the contestants and they have to decide who is more attractive between the special guest and one of the contestants. If their choice matches with that of the audience, they win money.

Round 4

Lastly, the two contestants have to decide who is the most attractive out of each other, winning if they guessed the same as the audience.
