Angus lands ITV1 quiz show

ITV has commissioned a new comedy quiz show to be fronted by Angus Deayton.

Bognor Or Bust will see him return to a similar hosts’s role as he had on Have I Got News For You – until he was sacked amid a drugs and prostitute scandal.

A pilot of the show, featuring panels of comedians and members of the public, was made earlier this year and now ITV1 has picked up a full series.

As the title suggests, the contestants vie for the chance to win a trip to Bognor.

Six episodes will be taped in London in August and September. For free tickets to the Wednesday-night recordings, available to over-18s only, e-mail bookings@lostintv.com with your name, address, contact number and how many tickets you require.

Producers 4DTV have previously made the animated satire 2DTV  for ITV1.
