Man O Man (UK game show)
Encyclopedia
Man O Man was a United Kingdom
game show, which ran from 4 May 1996 to 7 August 1999, hosted by Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
presenter Chris Tarrant
. The first series was produced by Richard Hearsey who previously produced another show hosted by Tarrant called Prove It. These shows were recorded at Twickenham Film Studios during the winter of 1995 and aired in 1996. Unfortuntely, because ITV kept changing transmission times and it was not shown in Scotland, the viewing figures (around 6 million) were not deemed to be high enough to continue with a second series immediately, although the show did acquire cult status. One of the hostesses in the first series, Tracey McAndrew later changed her stage name to Nell McAndrew and went on to co-host the re-make of It's A Knockout for Channel 5, again working with Richard Hearsey as producer.
