ITV1 has confirmed Melinda Messenger and Michael Underwood will host its new game show Bingo Night Live, as exclusively revealed by Broadcast earlier this year.
The free-to-air show will launch on 4 June and offers viewers the chance to play bingo and win cash prizes with a jackpot of £25,000.
Broadcast live after midnight on ITV1, the show will air five nights a week from Tuesday to Saturday.
Each one-hour programme will mix free-to-play bingo with entertainment and three main bingo games each night. There will also be a Golden Jackpot prize money starting at £25,000 on launch night.
Furthermore, there will be additional cash prizes to win with the extra games 'Magic Numbers' and 'Minute to Win It' which run between the main bingo games.
Punters can register and obtain their nightly playing bingo cards for free by visiting www.itv.com/bingonightlive from 2 June (Mon).
Bingo Night Live will effectively replace the scrapped ITV Play block.
