Eastenders star joins online bingo Site
2nd June, 2009
Online Bingo has its fair share of celebrity fans, including Sharon Osbourne, Alison Hammond and now Chris Parker. The former Eastenders actor will join the Gala bingo team and help promote the site's Soap Bingo show, which will also be broadcasted on their TV channel.
The show will take place on Friday evenings and Chris will invite one other soap star to join him. Players will be able to watch on Sky as well as on the Gala Bingo website.
Viewers will be able to text or email in questions for the stars to answer, as well as take part in some exciting bingo games.
Chris commented on his new role for Gala, saying, “I love bingo and live television so I’m really looking forward to becoming part of the whole Gala TV community and interacting with the players. I have enjoyed presenting on shows such as This Morning, MTV, CD:UK and my live movie show in LA.
"I am currently presenting E24 for BBC News but Gala TV is a very different ball game (quite literally)!”
Currently Gala TV shows payout about £20,000 every evening, making it one of the most popular gaming shows in the country.
