ITV has ordered We Are Most Amused and Amazed, a special show featuring comedians and magicians to celebrate The Prince of Wales’s 70th Birthday. It will be made by ITV Studios Entertainment and Spun Gold TV.
We Are Most Amused and Amazed will be a similar concept to the special that ITV created for The Prince of Wales’ 60th birthday back in 2008. ‘We Are Most Amused’ was a comedy special that boasted a line-up including Robin Williams, Joan Rivers, Eric Idle, Rowan Atkinson, Michael McIntyre, Bill Bailey and a reunion between John Cleese and Andrew Sachs who recreated his role of Manuel from Fawlty Towers.
The show will go out from the London Palladium with tickets sold to the public and proceeds going to youth charity The Prince’s Trust.
This two hour special has been commissioned by ITV’s Commissioning Editor Asif Zubairy. We Are Most Amused and Most Amazed is an ITV Studios Entertainment and Spun Gold TV co-production. Executive Producers for ITV are Sue Andrew and Lee Connolly with Nick Bullen Executive Producing for Spun Gold – the same team which produced the BAFTA-winning The Queen’s 90th Birthday Celebration.
