Episode 1: Season 1, Episode 1

Summary

Robert Rinder hosts this reality game show in which 13 'mourners' enter a large countryside estate and compete to earn as much of the money left behind by 'the Deceased' (played by Elizabeth Hurley). In this first episode, the newly arrived players are straight in at the deep end with their first request - fulfilling the final order of the Deceased's boutique wine range

Review

Frances Taylor

“I’m dead,” Elizabeth Hurley purrs. She’s ‘the Deceased’, a woman who’s left her fortune to 12 strangers. The overarching premise of the show is barely explained, but it’s the same old: contestants backstab, form alliances and complete tasks to win money. Overseeing it all is ‘the Executor’ aka Robert Rinder, who sheepishly hams it up. With shades of The Apprentice, it’s hard to care watching the players bottle up and deliver wine in order to unlock cash from the inheritance.
