Emily Atack's ITV quiz show, "Nobody's Fool," has been canceled after its first season, with sources suggesting this may allow her to participate in the third "Inbetweeners" movie. The show, which Atack co-hosted with Danny Dyer, featured ten contestants attempting to deceive each other about their performance in daily quizzes for a chance to win £100,000. Viewers reportedly described the program as a "rip-off" of the Disney+ series "The Traitors" upon its debut in May.
An ITV spokesperson confirmed to the Daily Mail that there are "no immediate plans for another series of Nobody’s Fool." While the cancellation is noted as disappointing for Atack, a source told The Sun that it could increase the likelihood of her appearing in the "Inbetweeners" film.
The trailer for the third "Inbetweeners" movie was released this week, confirming the return of the four main actors: Simon Bird, James Buckley, Blake Harrison, and Joe Thomas. Reports indicate that producers are keen for Atack to reprise her role as Charlotte "Big Jugs" Hinchcliffe, a character popular with fans of the original series.
Atack's potential involvement in the "Inbetweeners" reunion had previously been complicated. In 2019, she was reportedly excluded from an "Inbetweeners" reunion special after co-star James Buckley informed producers of a past romantic fling between them. Sources at the time suggested Buckley was concerned his wife might discover the brief relationship from when they both worked on the show between 2008 and 2010.
In addition to her television work, Atack is currently involved in a new BBC program titled "Reputation" and is preparing for a second wedding ceremony to fiancé Dr. Alistair Garner in Spain on Saturday. The couple has a two-year-old son, Barney. Atack's father previously owned a summer home in the Spanish town of Mojacar, where the actress has frequently visited.
