Key facts:

• ITV is reviving the iconic game show Name That Tune.
• Alison Hammond will host the new version of Name That Tune.
• The show originally aired on ITV from 1976 to 1987.
• Name That Tune has been revived in the U.S. on Fox since 2020.
• The format was created by Harry Salter in the 1950s.

The revival comes at a time when nostalgia-driven content seems to resonate well with audiences. Katie Rawcliffe, Director of Entertainment at ITV, expressed excitement about bringing this refreshed global format to UK viewers. She noted that “Name That Tune is such an iconic brand” and emphasized its appeal across generations.

Hammond herself has shared her enthusiasm for hosting the show, stating that her biggest challenge will be resisting the urge to sing along with her favorite tunes. It’s a fun family series that not only challenges contestants in the studio but also invites viewers at home to join in on the music quiz experience.

The U.S. version has thrived for over 70 years across multiple networks, including NBC and CBS. Interestingly, the band from that version will perform in the UK reboot — a detail that could add an exciting layer for fans.

With such a rich history and a modern twist, one can’t help but wonder: will this revival capture the hearts of a new generation while satisfying long-time fans? The answer may unfold when it airs on both ITV1 and ITVX next year.
