PARENTAL GUIDANCE: ROMESH RANGANATHAN PILOTS ITV GAMESHOW

Romesh Ranganathan is to front a new comedy quiz pilot for ITV, alongside his mum Shanthi.

The format sees the fortunes of the contestants lie in the hands of those who supposedly know them best... their parents. And it won’t just be the players’ general knowledge getting scrutinised. Keeping a watchful eye and putting Romesh in his place will be his mum.

Ranganathan appeared alongside his Mum on his BBC Two entertainment show The Ranganation until 2022. The show saw Romesh joined by 20 loveable, outspoken characters who represent a cross-section of modern Britain to review the week.
