| productions Viewer of the Year ITV 1 - 30th December 2006 9-11pm Presented by Kate Thornton, this live entertainment show was the climax of a nationwide search to find the one person in the UK who knew the most about the TV of 2006. The top fifty TV brains took part in the quiz where they were tested on absolutely everything about the television of the year. This included soaps, entertainment, sport, drama, news and events. The fifty were eventually whittled down to the two best players who battled it out in a dramatic finale. The eventual winner walked away with £50,000, a state of the art home entertainment system and the title Viewer of the Year 2006. The show also featured special celebrity guests who'd had a significant year on British TV, including Jason Donovan, Myleene Klass, the Royle Family's Ricky Tomlinson, Celebrity Big Brother winner Chantelle Houghton and TV soap villain of the year: Coronation Street’s David Platt – actor Jack P. Shepherd. The show also included phone-in competitions where viewers could call in to win the latest home entertainment systems. Over 200,000 people phoned-in for the competitions running through the programme. The show achieved an audience of 3.1 million. | Presented by: | Kate Thornton | | Narration: | Peter Dickson | | Featuring: | Jason Donovan, Chantelle Houghton, Myleene Klass, Jack P Shepherd, Ricky Tomlinson | | Other guest artists: | Toby Anstis, Pete Bennett, Fern Britton, Kelly Brook, Faith Brown, Alex Carter, Jenna-Louise Coleman, Antony Cotton, Jenni Falconer, David Gest, Eamonn Holmes, Lorraine Kelly, Kym Marsh, Davina McCall, Sharon Osbourne, Michael Parkinson, Joe Pasquale, Tricia Penrose, Phillip Schofield, Chris Tarrant, Catherine Tate, Bradley Walsh, Billy Zane | | Extracts and stills: | Wall To Wall, Shine, Rex Features, BBC, ITN, Granada, Talkback Thames, Syco, Endemol, Channel 4, Optomen, 'Lost' and 'Desperate Housewives' - Buena Vista Home Entertainment, IMG Media Archive, Celador International Ltd, RDF Media, Sky Sports | | Format devised by: | Eyeworks Ltd | | Theme Music: | Tim Goodacre | | Computer Systems: | Simon Latus (Cat And Mouse) | | Graphic Design: | Jump | | Editors: | Perry Widdowson | | Dubbing Mixer: | Adrian Smith | | Viz Operator: | Leon Glover | | Location Camera: | Mat Bryant, Jon Dickinson, Jono Smith | | Make-up: | Gemma Shanley | | Costume: | Patricia O'Neil | | Floor Manager: | Alan Conley | | Vision Controller: | Luke Chantrell | | Vision Mixers: | Simon Sanders, Andrew Jennings | | Camera Supervisor: | Phil Piotrowsky | | Sound Supervisor: | Robert Edwards | | Lighting Director: | Dave Davey | | Production Designer: | Simon Kimmel | | Script Supervisors: | Amanda Church, Vikki French | | Programme Consultant: | Elizabeth Salmon | | Production Runner: | Jake Hargreaves | | Production Co-ordinator: | Tom Barlow | | Researcher: | Leila Warren | | Associate Producers: | Madeline Addy, Joanna Hanley, Grant Philpott | | Production Manager: | Maggie Price | | Content Producer: | Gareth Davies | | Production Supervisor: | Tony Humphreys | | Executive Producer: | John Kaye Cooper | | Director: | Julian Smith | | Producer: | Nichola Hegarty |
