Britain’s Brightest Celebrity Family
THURSDAY 28 May, 8pm ITV Entertainment
It’s the battle of the soaps in the first episode of this new quiz for celebrities and their families, as Corrie’s Lucy Fallon and her clan go up against Shaun Williamson, AKA
EastEnders’ Barry, and his team for a chance to win £25K for charity. Anne Hegerty asks the questions.
Anne Hegerty hosts a special celebrity version of the show that tests families’ general knowledge…
‘Of course I can’t tell you who wins this week’s soaps battle, but what I can say is that I already knew Shaun was quite the quizzer,’ hints Anne. ‘He actually comes to some of the major quizzes and I’ve met him through those, so I knew he and his family would be strong candidates!’
Star names
Two brand-new rounds have been added to the celebrity version of the show, including an ‘observation’ round featuring cartoon images of Anne that put the families’ memories to the test.
There’s also a reality TV heat featuring Scarlett Moffatt and Curtis Pritchard and their families, a TV experts special with Dr Ranj Singh and his relatives taking on the Llewelyn-Bowens, and a football heat featuring John Barnes and Matt Le Tissier.
However, Anne says her dream contestants would either be her fellow
I’m a Celebrity camp-mate Nick Knowles or The Chase host Bradley Walsh!
‘Brad’s smart,’ she says. ‘He’s good at classical music and highbrow stuff like wine. And having met his wife and son, I think they could surprise everyone!’
