Three Are The Champions 

Three Are The Champions 

Can a team of three celebrities defeat a single champion?

Originating Territory: Germany

In this entertaining format three ambitious celebrities team up against real sport champions, world champions and world record holders. 

Whether it’s an athletic performance, an extraordinary mental ability, or a bizarre world record – the celebrity trio must always go beyond their limits. 

In each challenge, a master in their craft faces off against the celebrities. In a head-to-head duel, one on one, this is impossible, but as a team of three, this task becomes an exciting and challenging mission for the celebrities. Faced with ten champions in total, the three must demonstrate ambition, teamwork and a real personal performance. Can the celebrities use their trio advantage to defeat the champions?

Who can win more duels in the end? The celebrity-trio or the group of champions? Who’s leaving the show with a big cash prize? 

Three are the Champions is spectacular prime time family entertainment with a big portion of humour.
