A'''''Distraction''''': the [[Game Show]] that asks "How much humiliation will you endure to win some amazing prizes?"
 
Programme from Great Britain hosted by brash comedian [[Jimmy Carr]] which involved contestants answering rather simple questions while being [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|distracted]] in various ways, such as being thrown around by [[Professional Wrestling|wrestlers]], having live geese eat feed off your body while lying face up in your underwear, and buzzing-in by sticking your fingers in mousetraps, stopping a fan with your face, or even urinating in a toilet onstage.

* [[Anvil on Head]]: Subverted in the "Rope Burn" game; the anvils fall on your prizes instead. In the US version, a 1,000-pound barrel of cement was occasionally used as well.
* [[Carry a Big Stick]] / [[Drop the Hammer]]: The losers do, if you win a car.
