ITV are to screen a special Jeremy Beadle tribute programme entitled An Audience Without Jeremy Beadle.

Chris Tarrant will host the show in front of an audience made up of Beadle's family and friends, reports The Sun.

As well as celebrating the life of the TV prankster and featuring some of the most memorable clips from his TV career, the show will also highlight his charity work.

Also, from today (1 April) visitors to http://www.itv.com/Beadle?CMPID=FOR00009 will be able to watch ten of Beadle's funniest pranks and vote for their favourite. ITV are also asking anyone who appeared in the original clips to get in touch via the website.

The programme, which will reveal the most popular clips, will be screened on ITV1 in the spring.

Do you think this is a fitting tribute to Jeremy Beadle?

    I didn't realise how much he'd done for charity, I used to watch his shows when I was a kid in the 80s and I was really surprised by how sad I felt when I heard that he'd died. I think that if it's done tastefully (which ITV don't always do well) then it'll be a great tribute to him.

    I think it is. A lot of people thought an annoying gonk. How many people ave new found respect for him.he didnt bang on about his charity work. He did it cos he loved it. He was a good man.

    The guy was an annoying star. I don't think we new what he did for"his" charity. And he didn't bang on about it. A true gent. My thoughts are with family and friends who new him and loved him.
