ITV's The Fortune Hotel's Stephen Mangan: His famous wife and 'terrifying' personal tragedy

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Stephen Mangan's showbiz career has been a varied one. From being the 'new' voice of Postman Pat to now fronting a new reality TV series where contestants have to cunningly work against each other for a chance to win a life-changing sum of money.

Stephen will appear on ITV screens from tonight (Monday, May 13) hosting The Fortune Hotel, an eight-part reality/ gameshow series based at a luxurious Caribbean resort.

Following a similar theme to BBC One's The Traitors, the contestants have to go through a series of challenges in the hope of duping each other into who holds that all-important briefcase containing the cash.

Speaking about his involvement with the show, he said: "People are endlessly fascinating to me as an actor and the reason you become an actor is because people and how they get on with each other, especially in moments of high stress is deeply fascinating.
