Rob Beckett’s Smart TV the telly quiz show about television returns next month…
Host Rob Beckett is joined for the second series by returning captains Josh Widdicombe and Alison Hammond, as the trio welcome some the UK’s favourite personalities to celebrate and battle it out on all things ‘on the box’.
Each week, celebrity guests will battle through a series of competitive, chaotic rounds to determine who knows the most about TV. The star-studded line-up of guests has also been announced with Danny Dyer, Richard Osman, Richard Ayoade and Motsi Mabuse competing in episode one and appearances from David Mitchell, Richard Madeley, Chris McCausland and Helen George in later episodes.
Only on Rob Beckett’s Smart TV can viewers watch as Alison Hammond and Richard Madeley go head-to-head in the ultimate This Morning showdown, have the chance to spot the famous auctioneer from Only Fools and Horses’ legendary “millionaire” moment and discover whether Alison has starred in more reality shows than Joey Essex. Fans will relive some of The Traitors’ most gripping confessions and watch on as Richard Osman gives his expert verdict on Midsomer Murders.
