Overview

National Bingo Night is marketed as an interactive experience for both the studio audience and viewers at home. Members of the studio audience attempted to win a game of bingo while competing against a solo studio contestant as well as live television audience.

How to Play

In each episode, two fast-paced, rounds of BINGO are played. The contestant plays one of many in-studio games, which is driven by the game ball numbers (1-75). The nation can play alongside the studio contestant by crossing out the numbers on their own 'National Bingo Night' tickets.

Each Ticket is only applicable for the Game number specified on it. Every episode of the TV Game Show will have two Games-a Yellow Ticket Game and a Green Ticket Game ("Game"). The host will announce the Game number and colour of the Ticket to be played on at the beginning of each Game. The home viewer has to circle the numbers announced by the host that are taken out of the dome, if they appear on your Ticket. Do not poke hole in the Ticket, or scratch out or strike-through the numbers. All the balls/numbers that are taken out will be displayed on the television screen from time to time during that Game.
