It was an evening full of emotion and excitement. During the 28th edition of the Telekamery Tele Tydzień Awards – one of the most prestigious television polls in Poland – The Cash Battle (Awantura o kasę) triumphed in the Entertainment Format category, while Krzysztof Ibisz received the award for Host / Presenter / Show Personality. Congratulations!
The cult quiz show, produced by ATM Grupa, returned to Polsat after nearly two decades – and once again won the hearts of viewers. Blending emotion, strategy, and humor into a high-energy spectacle, the show regularly attracts close to one million viewers. Its revival perfectly bridges the nostalgia of the original with a fresh, modern production style – proving that genuine emotion, good humor, and great entertainment never go out of fashion.
Words to remember
During the gala, Krzysztof Ibisz was visibly moved. Accepting the award for the show, he thanked the audience and the Cash Battle team, emphasizing that this success belongs to everyone who believed in bringing a legend back to life:
“I thought I’d only get nominations until retirement! What a surprise… Thank you for believing in the people I make television with – they’re the reason I still feel the same joy on set as I did at the beginning of my career.”
Moments later, he returned to the stage to accept his individual Telekamera for Best Presenter. His heartfelt speech became one of the evening’s most memorable moments:
“For me, this wonderful and prestigious award proves that my life choices and passion for television truly work – and that my love for this profession burns just as brightly as on my very first day. There wouldn’t be this happy Krzysiek without my wife, my family, and the amazing people I get to share this passion with. Thank you to Polsat – my professional family – for believing in the classics and bringing them back with such flair.”
On social media, Ibisz added:
“It’s worth believing in your ideas and never giving up – quality stands the test of time, even after 20 years. These Telekamery are great news for television: viewers still choose emotion, scale, and professionalism.”
