The radio 2 presenter will front a new Channel 5 quiz, Celebrity Puzzling, with Carol Vorderman and Sally Lindsay as team captains and a host of other famous faces as guests
Jeremy Vine is set to front a new quiz show. The presenter will be putting famous faces through their paces on Celebrity Puzzling.
It will feature questions involving logic, lateral thinking and problem solving and Jeremy reckons it’s a tip top format.
He said: “It’s amazing to do a quiz that’s so simple and yet feels so fresh in every way.”
TV favourites Carol Vorderman and Sally Lindsay have been hired to be team captains for the show, which is being made for 5.
They will be joined by a string of big names including Shaun Williamson, Les Dennis, Gareth Malone, John Thomson, Dom Joly and Scarlett Moffatt.
Carol said: “I’m so excited to be a team captain on Celebrity Puzzling.
“Finally, all those years of loving numbers, words and brainteasers are about to pay off! Well, I hope that they are.”
Sally added: “If you love a puzzle, you will love this.”
The eight-part series will air later this year.
Execs at 5 are hoping it will be a ratings smash.
Executive producer Martin Scott said: “It’s wonderful to be producing the series. It’s great fun and a real challenge.”
