It’s not hard to crack a smile when Gino D’Acampo is around, but one thing that might prove tricky to control is how he behaves in front of the camera on a family show.

After causing This Morning hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield to crumble on live TV on many occasions, Gino, 44, is ready to unleash his quirky humour onto unsuspecting contestants on ITV’s reboot of Family Fortunes.

When Woman’s Own chats to him, Gino reveals how he coped with lockdown in Italy, the advice he gives his three children and why he prefers women to be ‘happy, bubbly and wobbly’!

Gino, you’re known for your humour on This Morning. Did that help you get the Family Fortunes job?

That’s why they asked me – because they want chaos. I used to watch Les Dennis, and I appeared on the celebrity version with my family 10 years ago, with Vernon Kay hosting. We played against Michelle Keegan’s family and they kicked our asses! I couldn’t understand half the questions.

Do you think you’ll struggle with social distancing?
