Product Information

Eamonn was offered the chance to present a quiz called Double or Nothing, where audience members would attempt to answer questions for cash prizes. The only other occasion during Andrews' presentational run where he was not the presenter was in 1974 when he was the subject a second time, and the show was presented by David Nixon. Michael Aspel (himself, a "victim" in 1980) became presenter after Andrews died in 1987. The show returned to the BBC in 1994 but was still produced independently by Thames Television, by then no longer an ITV contractor. The programme was discontinued again in 2003. However, it wasn't long before Eamonn suggested the idea of reviving This Is Your Life. He felt that the BBC had killed off the show too early and that the format had years of 'life' still in it. Enthused by the prospect of This Is Your Life in colour for the first time, Brian Tesler - now the Head of Light Entertainment at Thames Television - commissioned a 13-part series.
