"Agent" in TVN so far has been the most expensive show produced in Poland. The host of the show is Marcin Meller, a journalist in 'Polityka' magazine.

Preparations to Polish version of 'The Mole' started in summer 2000. In August over 3000 people took part in the casting organized in two cities, Warsaw and Krakow. During the four-day casting 30 people were chosen, and then the final 12 contestants. The main criteria while chosing the contestants were not physical strength and appearance but strong personality and openness.

Worth mentioning is that the usual preparations to realization of  'The Mole' last 6 months, while TVN had only 1 month!

The chosen 12 didn't know where they were going. They didn't meet with one another at the airport. Each of them got an envelope with the directions. This way they got from Warsaw to Lyon, France.

The 12 contestants:

• Wojtek, the first dropped out;;

• Romek - 2nd dropped out;

• Piotr - 3rd dropped out;

• Izolda - 4th dropped out;

• Danuta - 5th dropped out;

• Malgorzata - 6th dropped out;

• Izabela - 7th dropped out;

• Kuba - 8th dropped out;

• Remigiusz - 9th who dropped out;

When asked about the best day during their French adventure the contestants point the bungee jumping day (Ponsonass Bridge, 104 metres high, all of them jumped) and the day when after two weeks in France they met their friends and family members.

• Liwia - the winner
• Agnieszka - 'The Mole', or 'Agent'
• Jerzy - he lost to Liwia

Here are some pictures of the challenges

The golf challenge. Probably the same challenge as in the second episode of the first Belgian Mole.
Agnieszka (the Mole) on the lift once had a challenge to shave her head. She didn't do it.
Milking the goats. Probably the same challenge as in the fourth episode of the first Belgian Mole.
After climbing the Mont Ventoux with the bike. Same challenge as fifth episode of first Belgian Mole.
