Australia Wombats Dodgeball Team
The Wombats have agreed to terms for a new television show to air in 2012. The TV show will feature each of the Wombats and will be a fusion of a number of formats. The show, described as part Survivor, part Race Around the World, a hint of Wipeout and a dodgeball, will feature a number of contestants vying for an Australian record of $10m prize money.
The TV deal has been a number of months in the making and was close to being turfed after a number of demands from the Wombats were not being met. Tamas says, “It was all blown out of proportion – we had one thing we wanted to do. We wanted to throw spaghetti bolognese at Matt Preston from Masterchef and see him try to dodge it. We’ve managed to get Masterchef on board now so it’s full steam ahead.”
The show will audition for contestants early in 2012 and will take 24 normal people and put them through physical challenges over six months. The winner will take home the entire prize pool, however it is expected that like Australian Idol, those who finish second and third will go on to longer term fame and fortune.
