You've Been Roadkilled

You've Been Roadkilled! is a popular game show, hosted by the charismatic Max Celerator. Contestants much answer questions on a car of their choice, to win a shopping spree at their favourite shopping venue.
== Gameplay and Appearing on the show ==
To appear on the show, contestants-to-be must sign a series of contracts (with 'I will not sue if run over by a car' written in small print), as well as fill out a form citing their reasons for wanting to star on the show, their favourite car, shopping venue of choice, et cetera. If not rejected, the contestant-to-be will be put on a waiting list, and eventually summoned to compete.
On the show, the contestant is treated like a good friend of the host's. Before going on air, they are treated to dinner, pre-show tea and biscuits, and a chat. Celerator introduces them with their name and profession, and they go through the five rounds of the show - general car knowledge, questions about their car of choice, rapid-fire true-or-false questions, a physical challenge that involves throwing foam balls into baskets while running on a treadmill (doesn't really affect the end score that much) and a final round in which the contestant has to answer ten more questions regarding their choice vehicle, but on a timer that depends on the amount of points the contestant has.
If the contestant loses, they are given a consolation prize and a trophy (as well as the ever-lasting friendship of Max Celerator, if they were a good sport). However, if they win, they are given the grand prize - a shopping spree. This is filmed, and as they come out of the shop, the reason for the game becomes apparent - they are run over by the very vehicle they answered questions on. In earlier episodes, this was driven by Max Celerator, but later on, it is more often driven by his assistants, Rigby, Bigby and Digby.
== Other Trivia ==
* Max Celerator usually pays for the contestant's hospital fees, if they are that badly injured.
* It is a running gag later on in the series that Max Celerator pops out from increasingly ridiculous locations and yells the name of the show (in his most dramatic game-show-host voice). These include bushes, dustbins, manholes, old ladies' handbags, employee disguises, skips, sgran vans, helicopters and seemingly nowhere.
