The Wall is a British television series hosted by Danny Dyer, broadcast on Saturday evenings on BBC One. It is based on the American version of the same name.[4] The first series of the show was filmed on the set of the Polish version, at Transcolor Studio in Szeligi near Warsaw[1] between 1 and 6 July 2019,[5] and the second was filmed at Wembley Arena due to travel restrictions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom.[6][2] The questions are voiced by Angela Rippon.[7] The show was developed into a board game in December 2020 by Ideal Games.
