What’s Happening:
- In For A Penny host Stephen Mulhern is heading to Orlando, Florida, to film the final episode of the sixth series, which kicked off in the UK on April 20th.
- The popular pop-up game show began as a segment on Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway and was spun off into its own series in 2019.
- Each episode sends Stephen Mulhern to a different location in the UK, where he plays random games with strangers on the street. Examples of games include Gelatto Fun (tossing ice cream scoops onto a cone), Driving Me Round The Bend (reversing into a parking spot without letting your wheels touch the lines), and Splitting Hairs (guessing if men with towels on their heads have hair or not).
- The series six finale will be the first time in In For A Penny History that the show has been sent outside of the UK.
- Disney characters will make guest appearances during the episode, which finds Stephen Mulhern playing In For A Penny games at the resort’s signature theme parks.
- Among the games played at Walt Disney World will be the infamous Stopwatch Game, which requires players to stop the watch at an exact time to win a large sum of money.
- The special episode will also debut new games for the series.
- An air date for the finale has not yet been announced, but the first seven episodes of series six are scheduled through June 6th, and this series has an eight-episode order.
What They’re Saying:
- Diego Rincón, Creative Director of In For A Penny: “We are thrilled to be taking the epic In For A Penny to Walt Disney World Resort in Florida! This is a perfect partnership to create truly entertaining TV.”
- Angelica Costantini, Vice President of Disney Destinations International UK and EMEA: “We are delighted to host Stephen Mulhern and In For A Penny at Walt Disney World and we can’t wait to bring Disney magic to homes across the UK.”
