The object involves five random people deciding which one of five strangers is worthy of winning money. (UK version: £50,000 in series one, £20,000 in series two)
The decisions are based on the impressions and opinions of each contestant as made by the panelists.
The order goes as follows:
- A 15-second introduction of the contestants is shown to the panel. They then must decide who gets eliminated solely based on who gives off the worst impression.
- A short biography of the contestants is shown, followed by the occupation and annual salary of the contestants. The panel then eliminates a second contestant.
- The three remaining contestants are asked about three "hot button" issues, such as prostitution, same-sex marriage and adoption, or gun control. Then, a hidden camera video is shown with the three contestants interacting with actors whom they believe to be contestants. The third contestant is then eliminated.
- The final two contestants are interviewed by the panel. Any panelist can ask any question, as long as s/he doesn't ask what the winner would do with the money. The panel then votes for a winner.

A short-lived US version aired from 17 July to 16 September 2007 on GSN and was hosted by psychotherapist Dr. Robi Ludwig. The US version gained notoriety when, on one episode, a contestant claimed he would eliminate another contestant solely because "he's black".[2][3] Additionally, on 28 August 2007, it was in partnership with the NAACP[4] in order to air the newest PSA spot during a special episode that was presented in association with the organization.
