Phillip Schofield reveals major change in career
Phillip Schofield has opened up about a major change to his upcoming TV show, The Cube, and how the new series will be "tougher" than previous years - and will have a much bigger cash prize!
Speaking of the game show, which last aired in 2015, he said: "The Cube is such a cracking format but with the players now in teams and a whopping million-pound prize fund, it now means this high-pressure environment has just got tougher. I can’t wait to be reunited with the legendary Perspex Cube!"
