Wie is de Mol? (Dutch TV series)
Wie is de Mol? (English: Who is the Mole?) is a Dutch adventure reality game show. It is based on the Belgian reality game show De Mol, the original version of the format created in 1998 by Woestijnvis and broadcast on VRT. Format
Wie is de Mol? is a reality television competition involving 10 candidates. These candidates travel to a foreign country where they have to complete assignments to earn money to fill the prize pot. However, one of the participants is the Mole. The mole's goal is to sabotage the assignments and cause the other candidates to fail and to keep the total amount of money in the pot as low as possible. The other candidates do not know who the mole is, and have to find out who this mole is. At the end of every episode the candidates take a multiple choice test about the mole's identity. The test contains 20 questions (40 questions in the final test) about the mole's activities since the previous test and personal questions about the mole (for example, "On which team was the mole during the castle-assignment" or "Has the mole been baptized?"). With the help of 'jokers', which they can earn during the assignments, the contestants can turn incorrect test answers into correct answers. The person with the fewest correct answers is then eliminated from the show. In most series this process continues until only two contestants and the mole remain. The winner is the person with the most correct answers in the final test and he or she gets all of the money earned during the previous stages of the game. Hosts
