Default Did Bradley Walsh get his game show hosting start on Wheel Of Fortune in the UK?
When I was learning new game show facts one of the facts I learned was that before he became the star of The Chase in the UK Bradley Walsh made his game show hosting debut as the host of the UK version of Wheel Of Fortune but later quit the show to focus on starting a family and then went on to star in Law And Order UK before hosting The Chase in the UK. I just love learning about interesting and awesome facts about game shows and when I discovered this fact it interested me a lot

He was a pro soccer player too! I agree with you Bestie. I like to find out trivia on game show hosts too.

Thank you very much for your reply my friend. When I first saw Bradley Walsh host Wheel Of Fortune in the UK I never knew he had such great energy to host the show and he was so awesome as the host. Too bad he left Wheel Of Fortune in the UK because he was focusing on other things. But I learned that Bradley Walsh also developed and hosted a game show called Cash Trapped but I wonder if Bradley will make his mark in America as a huge game show star because of his hosting of The Chase UK and Wheel Of Fortune UK?

I saw on youtube some of Bradley on the UK WOF. They called him Brad then. I wonder why he is Bradley now? Yes Bestie, I think he would make a great host for an American game show. He is funny and a nice guy.

Here's some more info on Bradley Walsh and Wheel Of Fortune UK that you may find interesting to know. During his hosting duty on Wheel Of Fortune Bradley Walsh also had his very own round called Brad's Box and before the round would start Bradley would announce the prize of the day that was featured in Brad's Box and the only way the contestant won Brad's Box was by landing on a wedge on the wheel with a special token much like the Star Bonus token on the American Wheel Of Fortune. That I thought was really awesome on the show
Thank you for your reply

Another fact about Bradley Walsh that surprised me that I learned about that I didn't know is that Bradley Walsh was also a soap opera star in the UK before he was on Wheel Of Fortune UK. Bradley Walsh sure has had an awesome career as a game show star in the UK thanks to his big break on Wheel Of Fortune UK and I agree with you my friend that Bradley Walsh would be a great host for an American game show because he has a wonderful personality. I can't figure out why on Wheel Of Fortune UK he was named Brad then? Maybe when he started appearing on Law And Order UK and started hosting The Chase in the UK he decided to call himself Bradley to make him sound more gentleman like and polite

Wow Bestie! Bradley Walsh has really done alot! I bet he changed his name from Brad to look more mature. Bradley sounds better as a game show host. Keep the trivia coming Bestie! You are the best!

In addition to hosting Wheel Of Fortune in the UK Bradley Walsh was also a spokesman for a supermarket in the UK in a series of funny commercials. Bradley Walsh sure is fun to watch in game shows and I think we shall see Bradley make his American game show debut soon. Maybe someday he will even make a guest appearence on Wheel Of Fortune in America since he was the host of the UK version. Would that be so cool to watch?

Yes, Bestie, that would be cool to see him on American WOF. Is it my imagination or do you have a crush on Bradley? I bet you do!

Thank you very much for your reply. I think it would be nice to see Bradley Walsh appear on the American Wheel Of Fortune for Wheel Of Fortune's Wheel Around The World Week and I bet you he would be a hit with fans of the American Wheel Of Fortune if they decide to do it. And yes my friend I do have a crush on Bradley Walsh and think he's so cute and I can't wait to see him host a game show in America someday soon
Thank you for replying to me my friend
