Angela Rippon will front a new BBC game show.
The former newsreader and 'Take Me Out' presenter Paddy McGuiness will co-host 'Amazing Greys', which pits young people against "some of the UK's most talented pensioners".
A source told the Sun newspaper:"Each of the Amazing Greys [the pensioners] has an incredible talent they have spent a lifetime perfecting - be it physical, mental or something completely unique to them.
"The contestants will face a maximum of three Amazing Greys. If they can beat two of the three, they will leave with £10,000. If they don't they will leave with nothing."
The format is reminiscent of former BBC game show 'The Generation Game' - famously hosted by Bruce Forsyth in 1971 - which featured four different families pit old against the young in a bid to win prizes.
Angela says she looking forward to the new format and will be encouraging the elder generation throughout the competition.
She said: "The show will celebrate some of the most talented senior citizens and I will be there to cheer them on as they take on the younger contestants."
'Amazing Greys' will air on BBC One in the spring.

Vicky Pattison will star in new reality dating show 'Ex on the Beach'.
The 'Geordie Shore' favourite is among eight cast members who will heat up MTV this spring in the new series, which follows a group of singletons mingling on a sunset holiday.
However, the good times are soon rocked by the arrival of their former partners.
The cast - which includes four men and four women - will be on pins-and-needles as their ex-boyfriends and ex-girlfriends arrive on the beach one by one when they least expect it.
Vicky, who was previously engaged to former 'Geordie Shore' star Ricci Guarnaccio, is among the singletons that will come face-to-face with a blast from the past, but viewers will be left to wonder which of her exes will confront her on the beach.
The 25-year-old star said: "'Ex on the Beach' is so different to everything else that MTV and any other channel has out at the minute, I'm so excited for it. This show genuinely revolves around a group of young people going out and finding love, which I think is novel when so much emphasis is based on sleeping around and living for the moment. This is about finding someone and I do think that's really nice and I'm so excited to be a part of it."
'Ex on the Beach' will air on MTV this spring.

Justin Bieber is reportedly "smoking more weed than ever" since moving to Atlanta.
The 'Boyfriend' hitmaker is said to have sparked concern among his friends since moving out of Los Angeles - where he had a schedule set up by people connected to his business affairs - as he no longer has any real rules or plans, with insiders claiming he spends much of his time smoking marijuana or consuming sizzurp, a cocktail of Sprite, Jolly Tancher sweets and medications codeine and promethazine which is referred to by the singer and his pals as 'lean'.
A source told TMZ: "He is constantly high. Drinking more lean, smoking more weed than ever."
The insiders claim Justin doesn't really leave his house, but is spending a lot of time working on hip hop music in his recording studio - and is "rarely sober".
The 19-year-old singer - who has caused controversy with his recent antics, including being arrested for allegedly assaulting a limo driver, and also for driving under the influence (DUI), driving with a suspended license and resisting arrest - is said to be cutting down his inner circle, pushing away those who have "confronted" him about his drug use, and those who have "ratted him out" about his habits.

Shia LaBeouf's uncle has been ordered to repay $800,000 which he borrowed from the actor.
The 'Transformers' star won a lawsuit against Barry Saide, when Manhattan Supreme Court Justice judge Eileen Bransten ruled his relative must repay the money the Shia loaned him 2009.
According to the New York Daily News newspaper, the judge wrote in a decision signed Monday (24.02.14) but posted yesterday (26.02.14): "The terms of the note are clear and the amount due and owing ... is forth in the note."
The pair had an agreement which stated Barry should repay the loan in 15 instalments of $53,333 but he never did and he is now set to give as much as nine per cent interest.
Saide runs an employment agency and borrowed the money following the recession to help him get back on track.
When the lawsuit was filed last August, Barry expressed surprise about the 27-year-old actor's actions insisting he wouldn't have borrowed anything if he thought this would happen.
In an affidavit, he reportedly said: "Had I thought that Shayne and Shia would take this extraordinary step and seek to impoverish me, I never would have borrowed a dollar from Shia."
Barry also insisted he spent money looking after the Hollywood hunk and his mother Shayne before his rise to stardom.

Cindy Crawford accidentally got into bed with George Clooney.
The 48-year-old supermodel stars in a commercial for Casamigos tequila - a brand owned by the actor and her husband Rande Gerber - in which her spouse catches her between the sheets with the 'Monuments Men' star and she admits the funny advert was inspired by a real-life encounter.
Cindy recalled: "I woke up around midnight and snuck into the guest room and saw Rande laying facedown on the bed so I got on the bed and was like, 'Hey, babe, you gotta wake up', and 'babe' turned his head and it wasn't [Rande], it was George.
"I was shocked, and George, we were both so shocked, so we wandered downstairs, I went looking for Rande and was like 'George is in the guest bed, I just got in bed with him' and we all laughed."
The couple - who have children Kaya, 12, and Presley, 14, together - own a house in Mexico next door to George Clooney and the supermodel admits they were initially hesitant to purchase the property because of their actor friend's bachelor lifestyle.
She told 'Entertainment Tonight': "The two houses are practically adjoined, and I was like, 'Hmmmm we have kids, George is sometimes single, sometimes not single'. It could be great, or it could be a nightmare."
However, Rande thought it would be "fun".
He said: "I just thought it would be fun, we're always together anyway so why not have somewhere we could have all of us and our friends all be together."

Katy Perry helped deliver a baby yesterday (26.02.14).
The 'Roar' hitmaker was celebrating a "miracle" of a day which saw her assist with a home birth.
Katy tweeted: "Finally you can add "helps delivers babies in living rooms" to my resume! It's been a miracle of a day...❤️ Auntie Katy aka Stylist Auntie (sic)"
Though it is unclear who Katy was helping, fans have speculated she was by the side of her older sister Angela Hudson, who was revealed to be pregnant late last year.
The happy news would have been a welcome distraction for the 29-year-old pop star as it was reported yesterday she and John Mayer have split up after 18 months together.
It is claimed the couple decided to go their separate ways because Katy - who was previously married to Russell Brand - was so busy preparing for her upcoming world tour.
A source said: "She's stressed about the tour, they've been fighting. It is probably for the best, because she is going to be on tour for forever. Of course this happens all the time, I can't keep track anymore. But for now they are done."

Adam Driver has reportedly been cast as the villain in 'Star Wars: Episode VII'.
The 'Girls' actor is close to signing on the dotted line to star as a Darth Vader-inspired character in J.J. Abrams' upcoming intergalactic adventure, according to Variety.
While Disney and Lucasfilm declined to comment, the website reports that Driver - best known for playing oddball love interest Adam Sackler on HBO series 'Girls' - is pretty much confirmed for the role, with additional cast members expected to be unveiled next month.
Driver's 'Girls' co-star and director Lena Dunham appeared to support the rumour by posting on Twitter last night (26.02.14): "We're VERY proud of Adam Driver re: Star Wars. He's about to rip a hole in da force. Is that a thing? I guess I should see those movies? (sic)
However, she quickly backtracked her comment about the top secret casting, writing: "I confirm nothing bc I know nothing bc I'm on a plane with my dad! I just like Adam more than almost anyone, and JJ Abrams a whole lot too.(sic)"
Michael Fassbender and Hugo Weaving were initially linked to the part, but Driver is said to have emerged at the frontrunner in recent weeks when his previous scheduling conflicts were resolved.
The film is scheduled to shoot at London's Pinewood Studios in April, working from the script Abrams has re-written with Lawrence Kasdan.

Jason Statham will star alongside Melissa McCarthy in 'Susan Cooper'.
The 'Expendables 2' actor has been in talks with director Paul Feig since October last year and has finally agreed to join the project in which he will play a spy who teams up with McCarthy, sources have told Variety.com.
Feig also wrote the script and will produce with Peter Chernin and Jenno Topping, while Jessie Henderson is executive producing.
Hollywood tough guy Statham, 46, is known more for his action roles but he has featured in more comedic movies such as 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels' and 'Snatch'.
However, he previously admitted he was drawn to the action genre since scenes are "a lot of fun" despite potential injuries, after he admitted he does his own stunts and often gets hurt.
He said: "I'm always getting banged about. I just expect it now - it's part of the job. Coalminers get dirty, I get hurt! It looks serious, but it's actually a lot of fun; although it can get pretty ridiculous at times."
Statham is set to hit the big screen in 2014's 'Heat' and 'The Expendables 3' while McCarthy has been cast in upcoming flicks 'Tammy' and 'St. Vincent de Van Nuys'.

Kate Beckinsale has been cast in 'Absolutely Anything'.
The 40-year-old actress - who will next hit the big screen in legal drama 'The Trials of Cate McCall' - will star alongside Simon Pegg in the forthcoming comedy which is being helmed by Terry Jones, reports deadline.com.
Pegg plays a teacher who discovers he has the ability to do what he wishes, in a task presented to him by aliens who will be voiced by Jones' 'Monty Python' comedy troupe, which includes John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Michael Palin and Eric Idle.
Finding it difficult to come to terms with his powers Pegg's character calls upon his dog (voiced by Robin Williams) to help him, and he must decide whether to choose the girl played by Beckinsale or the pooch.
A number of other A-Listers are set to make an appearance in the film include Goodness Gracious Me's Sanjeev Bhaskar, comedian Eddie Izzard and 'The Wolf of Wall Street' star Joanna Lumley.
Mike Medavoy and Chris Chesser are executive producing, while Ben Timlett and Bill Jones are producing and gushed about having Beckinsale on board.
Timlett says: "We are over the moon to welcome Kate Beckinsale to our brilliant cast. She's perfect in the role of Catherine and joins some of the best names in comedy. Terry Jones and Gavin Scotts' script is laugh out loud and we look forward to bringing it to a worldwide audience."
'Absolutely Anything' is set to begin filming in March in London.

Harvey Weinstein will not be making any more violent films.
The legendary producer thinks it's time he said "enough" to slaughter films following his extensive catalogue of bloody movies such as 'Pulp Fiction', 'Reservoir Dogs' and 'Kill Bill', and is "happy" with his new animation 'Escape From Planet Earth' because it's family friendly.
He told The Daily Mirror newspaper: "I made the movie for my kids, and I wanted to make something my mum could watch too.
"I've done my fair share of exploitation movies and slasher movie, and I'm not going to do that any more. They serve no purpose except to make money."
Last month Weinstein - who is an ardent anti-gun lobbyist - unveiled plans for a new film 'The Senator's Wife' which will take on the National Rifle Association in America.
The 61-year-old star understands why fellow Hollywood directors use violence in their work but he has ruled bloody films in future to avoid hypocrisy claims.
Harvey explained: "Quentin Tarantino and Martin Scorsese are artists though. They have a theory that the more you show the violence and guns the more of a deterrent it becomes.
"But for me personally, I am holding my hand up and saying 'enough.' I'm not going to make movies where we slaughter a whole bunch of teenagers but I am not saying anybody else can't do it."
"I don't want nay legislation. I just don't want to make those kinds of movies any more. Plus making Escape made me a rock star at home, so I'm happy."

Alana Haim was thrilled to win the NME Award for Best Band Blog or Twitter because it was the prize she most wanted to take home.
Alana's band Haim - which also features sisters Danielle and Este and drummer Dash Hutton - were up for five gongs at the ceremony at London's O2 Academy in Brixton last night (26.02.14) and walked away Best International Band, while Alana won the award for her Twitter account.
Before picking up the trophy, Alana, who has 84,000 followers on the site, told BANG Showbiz: "I want to win the trophy for Best Twitter, I need to defend my crown for one more year. I won it last year, no one can touch me.
"I'm totally gonna change my bio if I win, I need to win! James Blunt is hilarious on Twitter, Albert Hammond Jr, he's like a bro. I need to start a nice Twitter war with him."
'The Wire' hitmaker also praised Canadian producer and singer Grimes, real name Claire Boucher, who runs a successful fashion blog and was also nominated.
She said: "And then Grimes is like the best, I kind of want to give her my award but I really want to win that!"
Asked what the NME Awards mean to her, Alana replied: "I just love that all our fans can vote, for the BRITs it's not voted by the public.
"The NME Awards are chosen by the fans, everyone who is nominated are amazing and had amazing years, all the awards we are up for all the bands in our categories are fucking mind blowing. We're honoured to be here."

Drenge were nervous about performing in front of Sir Paul McCartney at the NME Awards last night (26.02.14).
The two-piece grunge band - made up of brothers Eoin and Rory Loveless - took to the stage at the O2 Academy Brixton in London and Eoin admitted he was worried about playing as The Beatles legend looked on.
Speaking before their performance, Eoin told BANG Showbiz: "Well, everyone is a musician [in the audience] aren't they? Everyone's got their music taste we just have to do what we do and if Paul McCartney doesn't like it we'll just have to live with that. This is the highest concentration of musicians we've ever played in front of."
The 'Bloodsports' singers were up for Best Live Band, but lost out to the Arctic Monkeys, and Eoin insists they couldn't have put bets on who would win, saying: "I don't think you can even bet on our category."
Although the duo weren't bothered about walking away from the ceremony with a prize, one of their competitive friends was desperate for them to be victorious.
Eoin said: "We've got a competitive mate with us in the band and he's been just so annoying about the ward. Any chance to wind us up or get us agitated he went for it."
Other performances on the night came from Blondie - who won the Godlike Genius Award - The Horrors and Metronomy, who opened the show along with MKS with 'Love Letters', which is from their forthcoming new album of the same name.
