Bradley Walsh and Peter Andre in new ITV game show
Peter Andre and Jason Manford are teaming up for a new ITV1 comedy game show Odd One In hosted by Bradley Walsh. Odd One In sees two celebrity teams go head to head to pick the person who has a unique skill or secret in a series of unusual line-ups. Each week, Bradley will challenge Peter and Jason, on the Home Team and a different celebrity duo to battle it out and guess the various Odd One Ins. In the first episode, screening Saturday, July 17, Jason and Peter will compete against Coronation Street’s Katherine Kelly and Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen as each team ask questions to try and determine who in each line-up has the odd skill, talent or secret. But how will they fare when they are faced with people who include the man who claims to have wed a tropical plant? Determine which contestant is part of an extreme roller-skating act? Deduce who, from a line-up that includes a piglet, teenager and 94-year-old women, is the real glider pilot? As well as the two teams, members of the Odd One In studio audience play along throughout the show. The audience member who gets the most identities right joins Bradley for a final line-up and a chance to win a cash prize.
