Remember Family Fortunes? This is like that, but nasty. For this filthy gameshow, we've asked 100 scumbags all sorts of horrible questions: What would you not want to catch your dad doing? Which politician deserves to be eaten by a shark? What animal would you most like to shag? Now it’s on you to guess their top answers... There are points, prizes and a 95% chance we’re going to hell, so come and play before ITV have us killed. We regularly sell out – book in advance so you don’t miss the filth.
