Holly Willoughby, Well it’s no longer going to be a surprise as ITV have confirmed that presenter extraordinaire Holly Willoughby will be hosting a special edition of the iconic show Surprise Surpise!

The show, originally made famous by Liverpudlian singer and presenter Cilla Black, was a big family favourite and the highly-rated programme ran for fourteen series from 1984 until 1997.

Following its original format, Surprise Surprise, will see the blonde mother of two giving well deserving members of the public the biggest surprise of their lives by making their dreams come true and dramatically reuniting them with lost family members.

Holly Willoughby is excited to be taking part in the reboot of the feelgood show, saying: “What an incredible honour to be asked to present this Surprise Surprise special for ITV1. I can’t wait to get out there delivering new surprises to the nation.”

Holly Willoughby, Holly Willoughby is set to present a revival of the CILLA BLACK 90s classic ‘Surprise, Surprise’. Holly Willoughby is tipped to be the presenter of the show which will bring distant relatives back together and carry out practical jokes on the public.

According to The Mirror, a source said: ”Surprise, Surprise’ was a big hit when it aired in the eighties and nineties and viewers remember it fondly. We’ll be updating the show and giving it a modern twist but the essence will still be the same.

Some of the best episodes were when we reunited family members who hadn’t seen each other for decades so we’ll hopefully be doing that again.’ Holly, who currently presents ‘This Morning’ alongside Phillip Schofield is tipped to be the favourite but others argue that she may have ruined her chances after quitting ITV1’s ‘Dancing On Ice’ in favour of upcoming BBC One talent show ‘The Voice’.

However, a source told The Sun: ‘Holly is still very much in the frame to do it.’ The first show will air in the autumn and if successful, it is likely to lead to a series or at least several specials.
