This was a question also directed towards Channel 4’s viewer enquiries department throughout the summer, so we thought it only right to do a little detective work on your behalf.

On closer inspection, we discovered that each episode of The Secret Millionaire featured brief excerpts from approximately 20 songs – with eight episodes included in this series, that’s a lot of music to indentify! No wonder we got so many questions…

Thankfully, with a little help from the viewer enquiries manager, we’ve now put together a list of all the commercially available tracks used in the most recent series – details of which can now be found on Channel 4’s official site for The Secret Millionaire. All music featured is listed on the website by episode.

Hope that satisfies your curious minds… enjoy!

Around 40 passionate Channel 4 viewers made the journey to London to take part in our debate – many were able to voice their opinions live on air, but with limited time and so many opinions in one room, not everyone managed to have their say before the studio cameras stopped rolling… As ever though, The TV Show team were on hand to let anyone who wanted to speak directly to camera.

Watch the video to find out what our audience members thought of programmes including Desperate Housewives, The Perfect Vagina, When Women Rule The World, The Secret Millionaire, and even The TV Show.

Having found a temporary home in the city’s Buchanan Street, The TV Show team asked passers by to share their views on the recent programmes they had either loved or loathed – and they didn’t disappoint.

Take a look at the video to find out what Glasgow viewers really think of programmes including The Secret Millionaire, Hollyoaks, The Genius of Charles Darwin, Ugly Betty, 10 Years Younger, Gok’s Fashion Fix, Dispatches and, of course, Big Brother…
