Stephen Mulhern has been keeping us entertained with his on-screen antics for almost 30 years now. This weekend, he's back with a new series of gameshow In For A Penny.
The show is based on the segment of the same name from Stephen's feature on Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway. It sees the presenter challenge members of the public in the street with portable minigames in a bid to eventually win £1,000 in the final, dubbed 'In For A Penny, In For A Grand.'
