The BBC are yet to confirm any details surrounding the potential prize but in past years winners have received everything from cash pay-outs to 4x4 cars.
The final was filmed in front of a live audience in Sheffield last year and now it won't be long for eager fans to discover who will triumph.

Betti and Bronte could be seen battling it out for a spot in the final as they faced off against Fire, Electro and Fury in the Powerball Challenge.
In the physical task, Betti originally won against her competitor in the opening game when she scored eight points against her opponents respective six.
However, referee Mark Clattenburg was forced to intervene as there was a potential rule break.
During one of her points, Betti was already tackled to the floor by one of the Gladiators.
But she decided to try her luck and still put the ball in the clear basket regardless.
In the end, she had some points deducted by the ref, but fans were absolutely raging online.
Furious fans branded her "the cheat" as they pleaded for her downfall on the programme.
