ITV1 Commission's Brand New Series of All Star Family Fortunes

According to the official ITV Sales website, ITV1 has commissioned a brand new series of the game show 'All Star Family Fortunes'.

Buzz!, the game show in your living room from PlayStation2, is to sponsor the new series of ITV1’s All Star Family Fortunes.

Vernon Kay hosts the new series of All Star Family Fortunes. The classic gameshow, which started on ITV in 1979, sees two celebrities and their families go head to head in a bid to win £30,000 for the charity of their choice.

Celebrities and their families include Chris Moyles, David Dickinson, Fearne Cotton, Melinda Messenger, and the infamous Battersby Family from Coronation Street who line up against soap rivals the Windsors from Emmerdale.

Phil Lynch, product manager at PlayStation said: “The sponsorship of Family Fortunes is a great way for us to bring Buzz! to a wider audience and more importantly to bring the concept of the game show live in your living room to life.“

Family Fortunes just won't be the same without comedian Les Dennis presenting it, in my opinion.
