My New Best Friend was a hidden camera comedy game show that aired on Channel 4 from 8 August to 12 September 2003.
What made the game difficult was Marc's character constantly embarrassing them in front of their family and friends to extreme levels, but they had to agree and go along with everything he said.
The contestant is left to explain to their friends and family that the whole situation was a TV game show to win £10,000.
In a retrospective review published in The Daily Telegraph in 2020, Tom Fordy declared the series to be "The most excruciating prank show ever made".
