YOUR WORLD CUP PITCH - PRODUCED IN ASSOCIATION WITH YAHOO!
ITV1
Official sponsors of the World Cup, Yahoo! wanted a TV programme
which reflected both their involvement in the tournament and
also their support of grass-roots football fans.
Our Solution was a two-part series involving six fanatical England
supporters; all ready and willing to prove themselves to be ‘England’s
no.1 fan.’ Each fan had the chance to ‘pitch’ their
case as ‘England’s no. 1 fan’ to a television
audience; the winner receiving those all-important tickets to
EVERY England game in Japan – including accommodation and
travel.
Capturing the passion and tension of a football match it was
a show of two-halves, culminating in a live finale that brought
the phone and email results direct to the contestants.
Presented by: TESS DALY of SM:TV fame and TERRY ALDERTON known
for his comic stand-up and London’s Burning, with special
guest presenter TERRY VENABLES
The series aired on prime time ITV1 pulling an audience of over
two million viewers and received extensive national media coverage.
