Sage & The Krypton Factor
Sage has teamed up with ITV1 to bring back television's toughest quiz, The Krypton Factor. The Krypton Factor, one of Britain’s most iconic shows, returns to ITV1 for 2009 with a 21st century makeover.

The stakes are bigger, the competition is harder and the pressure has never been higher as members of the public are invited to test their physical and mental and problem solving abilities in a range of rigorous mental and physical challenges.

If you’re a strategist who loves seeking solutions and has the determination to succeed then this is the show for you.

A series of rounds will test mental agility, observation, physical ability, intelligence and general knowledge.  It's mean, it's menacing and as tough as ever, but with new challenges, twists and technology.

The new-look show puts many of the skills to the test that Sage believe are needed for business – from mental agility to discipline and determination. Contestants will have to tackle challenging situations, in turn showing us what it takes to succeed.
