Romesh and Tom Take Takeshi’s Castle: release date, how it works, trailer, interviews and all about the classic show's reboot

Romesh and Tom Take Takeshi’s Castle arrives on Prime Video with plenty of crazy action and obstacles.

Romesh and Tom Take Takeshi’s Castle on Prime Video is the revival of a classic show from the 1990s. Millions of us grew up watching the classic Japanese game show Takeshi’s Castle back then, and it turns out that superfan Tom Davis was one of them. Now he and his comedy pal Romesh Ranganathan, who is "a fan of watching people fall off things and humiliate themselves", are at the helm of this brand new reboot on Prime Video. 

The pair, who often appear on one another’s shows, including King Gary, Judge Romesh and The Getaway, will guide viewers through the mayhem as over 100 contestants, known as "the attacking army", attempt to storm Takeshi’s impenetrable castle to get to the man himself and grab the opportunity to win one million yen.
