From glittering TV stardom to the showbiz doldrums, 70s telly host Derek Daniels has been off our screens for quite a while, with only his glamorous assistant and trusty wife Bev for company.
In a bid to rekindle the nation’s affection, Derek is making a comeback with Crimplene Millionaire, with a new live telly gameshow to be broadcast on the Retro Channel.
Derek and Bev invite you to play a round of Crimplene Millionaire, the 1970s board game that style forgot. Your hosts roll back the years to a pre-digital world of Mateus Rosé, Brut 33, fondue and butterscotch Angel Delight where you can compete for top prizes (subject to availability).
If you didn’t experience the decade first hand, prepare to be illuminated; and if you did, prepare to feel young again!
Can Derek win back our hearts, or will it be a dark night of the soul for light entertainment?
What skeletons are lurking in Derek and Bev’s walk-in-wardrobes and to what desperate lengths have they gone to survive in the z-list celebrity wilderness?
Performed on a unique life-size hand painted board-game, Crimplene Millionaire is prime-time edutainment, an interactive game and engaging social satire in one artful theatrical package.
