1"Play Your Cards Right"30 May 2020 (2020-05-30)N/A

Played with celebrity teams Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford, Martine McCutcheon and Jack McManus, Chris Ramsey and Rosie Ramsey, Ore Oduba and Portia Oduba.

The game was played in a tournament format with three matches, with the winner of the final (played on a single row of seven cards shared by both players) playing the prize cards. The prize cards were changed to a five-tiered pyramid with 12 cards, with tiers of five, three, and two cards each, followed by two more with one each. Successfully completing a row increases the prize (up to £30,000), but the players may only make up to three mistakes.
