Denise Van Outen calls for ITV to bring back hit reality TV show with Ben Shephard 15 years after it was axed
DENISE Van Outen has called on ITV bosses to bring a fun-filled singing show back to the schedule 15 years after it was axed.
The presenter 49, appeared on Thursday’s Good Morning Britain to chat about her new hard-hitting Channel 4 series, Secrets Of Supermarket Own-Brands.
Yet Denise then used her segment on the show to call on the broadcaster to resurrect a karaoke show she fronted with Ben Shephard, 48, back in 2008 too.
As a throwback clip of the pair singing together on Who Dares, Sings played out, Denise remarked: “They need to bring this back!”
The programme aired for the single series and spanned seven episodes.
It saw a studio audience of 100 people all attempt to belt out a tune for a £50,000 jackpot.
The whole crowd’s vocals were judged by a special Sound Analysis Machine which pulled out the two strongest competitors with its clever technology.
The two strongest then locked horns in a pitch battle before progressing to the final stage in an attempt to win the cash.
Meanwhile, viewers were left stunned after GMB was “cut off” almost immediately after the chat with Denise.
The ITV breakfast series was pulled off-air an hour early.
Good Morning Britain usually airs from 6am to 9am and is then followed by Lorraine.
Yet at around 7:55am today, the anchors told how they were “handing over coverage” to the women’s sport team for the FIFA Women’s World Cup.
Ben reassured GMB fans the show will be back at it’s normal broadcast time of 6am tomorrow.
Following an advert break, the football coverage kicked off with a clash between Portugal and Vietnam.
