Шаблон:About Шаблон:Infobox television

Going Straight is a New Zealand television reality programme by Touchdown Television that aired on TV3 in 2003. The show also aired on the United Kingdom cable channel Challenge.[1] The programme was hosted by New Zealand actor Manu Bennett, where contestants had to continue moving in a straight line, no matter what the obstacles in the way, to compete for prize money of $NZ10,000.

Format

The format of the programme challenged five contestants, wearing location monitoring equipment, to get to the end of a specified "virtual lane" across a landscape by completing three separate straight-line challenges. Contestants were eliminated each round. There was a $10,000 prize for the winner.[2]

By 2005, the show's format had been licensed to international television channels and production companies.[1]

Fire stunt accident

In 2004, an investigation was launched into the programme after a contestant suffered severe burns following a retake of a stunt.[3] The programme was later penalized NZ$65,000 in district court for the incident.[4] Charges were to be put to either Touchdown Television or its Warkworth District Court representative.[5]

Reception

Local media called Going Straight a show similar to Fear Factor[6][4] on a sickness benefit.[7]
