Alan Carr rebooting Bullseye and more for Epic Gameshow

Alan Carr is rebooting five of the UK’s favourite gameshows for ITV.
The former ‘Chatty Man’ star is set to front the upcoming programme which will see ‘Play Your Cards Right’, ‘Take Your Pick’, ‘Strike It Lucky’, ‘Bullseye’ and ‘The Price is Right’ all getting supersized for a new audience.
Opening up about ‘Alan Carr’s Epic Gameshow’, the host said: "It is such a privilege for me to be involved in these truly iconic shows that have brought so much joy to my childhood. A little bit of nostalgia but a whole load of fun.
"Big shoes to fill I know, but these shows should be back on telly for a whole new generation to sit down and enjoy with their family just like I did all those years ago!"
The series will feature contestants trying to win big money reward or top-of-the-range prizes, while each of the five formats will be revamped with an exciting new epic endgame.
Meanwhile, the seven part show’s run will also feature a festive episode of ‘The Price Is Right’, as well as a celebrity edition of ‘Play Your Cards Right’.
Joe Mace, ITV’s commissioning editor for entertainment, said: "We are really excited to bring these brilliant shows back to prime time with Alan Carr, they are the perfect match and we can’t wait for the audiences to fall in love with both."
Meanwhile Jonno Richards – acting managing director for Talkback – added: "A fantastic and funny host, five brilliant formats and some truly epic new end rounds.
"Who could ask for more? Talkback are thrilled to be working with Alan and ITV on this exciting new series."
