So when is all this happening then? Ant and Dec's Gameshow Marathon? I thought they were only going to present 3 revivals - hardly a marathon? Rolling Eyes

Well Granada Tickets says they'll be recorded in September and October so who knows when they'll get to air and how (stripped over a week or on several Saturday nights?)


Not sure this gameshow marathon is going to be what people expected. It's basically a celebrity vehicle. Celebs playing some of ITV's most popular gameshows, stripped over a week.

Or so the Granada Audience website blurb leads you to believe :

"ITV has been making brilliant game shows for 50 years and, as part of our 50th Birthday celebrations, Ant & Dec's Gameshow Marathon will celebrate the very best! Seven classic ITV Game Shows brought back for one week only!

Six top ITV faces will battle it out on ITV1, not only to win big money for their chosen charities, but to claim the title of Game Show Champion 2005!"

So, this is going to be Celebrity Game Show contestants is it..?

What a pathetic way to revive former gameshows and give them an airing (even if it is for char-a-dee)

I can't see why this comes as a surprise to anyone. It was said celebs would be playing for charity over a weeks worth of shows right back when the project was first announced Rolling Eyes

Anyway..the whole thing kicks off 17th September

They might not debut till tomorrow,Saturday,Sunday or Monday.Or maybe on the 10th or 11th! There's no telling really but i think it'll be on the 10th,either after MoM or before the top 50 shows.

I assume the 10th, seeing as thats when all the 'celebrations' kick off, so to speak.

I'm putting all my ITV50 stuff here for anyone wanting to see the ads again. They're quite big downloads though, so a long wait if you're on a slow connection.
