Summaries

A live entertainment game show hosted by Chris Evans that had a fresh 90's feel to it. As well as featuring a music star in each show, accompanied by Jools Holland on the piano, there would be regular games such as the "Superfan Quiz," "Flashing Houses", "Is Joe Normal As Good As Joe 90?" and "Light My Lemon," where members of the audience had a chance to win the star prize of a luxury holiday. It also featured Chris Evans regularly playing practical jokes on unsuspecting members of the audience, from revealing embarrassing secrets about them to hidden camera pranks or sending someone out on an embarrassing errand in public in order to win a prize. Other series regulars helping out were Rowland Rivron (Series 2) and Chris' girlfriends Rachel Tatton-Brown (Series 1) and Jadine Doran (Series 2), while the fact it was live meant that anything could happen, which gave the series it's edge.
