Glitterball
Glitterball was a live, late night, interactive television quiz show in the United Kingdom. It was broadcast under the ITV Play branding on ITV a few nights a week from around midnight (usually), and from 1.00am on ITV2. The show launched on 19 February 2007. Both Glitterball and Make Your Play alternated their days of broadcast. Glitterball's final show broadcast on the morning of Sunday 30 September 2007.
Overview
Glitterball was created by Ludus:ETV (who also produced The Mint) and produced from studios at 3SixtyMedia, Manchester. The programme was broadcast on ITV and ITV2 from Sunday to Wednesdays.
The show started on 19 February 2007. In order to win money, holidays and various other special prizes, viewers were required to either call in at a cost of 75p from a BT landline, text the word 'BALL' to an automated call back service or enter via the ITV website. If successful, they would be placed on hold and then transferred live to the studio to deliver their answer.
An announcement on 12 September 2007 confirmed that the show, along with similar late night phone-ins, would be phased out by the end of 2007.

Glitterball
by: Simple MindsFull of doubt, took the easy way out
Always said they couldn't find their place
Among some real dark stuff, they got to thinking enough
Remember Halcyon Days
We'll spend our time with a bottle of wine
And a love that knows no human state
Never got to wake up early, never got to feel so poorly
As the great unloved go dancing all the way
Glitterball, radiate 'round the hall
Lift me up, then leaves me to fall
Glitterball, radiate 'round the hall
As the great unloved go dancing all the way
One step, two step, three step, four
Drag me to the middle, then you pulled me to the floor
Glitterball, radiate 'round the hall
As the great unloved go dancing all the way
And I've been captured by imagination
I feel the faint vibration in the air
Been taken hostage by the one creation
Anticipate the night that's in your hair
Glitterball, radiate 'round the hall
Lifts me up, then leaves me to fall
Glitterball, radiate 'round the hall
As the great unloved go dancing all the way
Glitterball, radiate 'round the hall
Lifts me up, then leaves me to fall
Glitterball, radiate 'round the hall
As the great unloved go dancing all the way
One step, two step, three step, four
Drag me to the middle, then you pulled me to the floor
Glitterball, radiate 'round the hall
As the great unloved go dancing all the way
One final day
As the great unloved go dancing all the way
Don't make me wait
As the great unloved go dancing all the way
