Bruce Forsyth's Big Night


				

					8.0											
							IMDb tt0264962
						
										1978										Comedy · Family				


				
Screened on ITV, Saturday nights throughout the autumn and winter of 1978.  A total of 12 episodes were broadcast between 7 October and 31 December 1978, with an additional highlights show and a further one off special on 4 April 1980. Despite a huge budget and big name guest stars it was poorly received and was broadly unsuccessful, with Forsyth's former big hit The Generation Game (hosted then by Larry Grayson) winning higher audience figures.
