Vernon Kay has signed a £2m contract with ITV.

The telly host has agreed to a golden-handcuffs deal to stay with the broadcaster for 2 years.

And Vernon, 33, is chuffed.

‘I'm extremely thrilled and excited about what lies ahead,’ he tells the Daily Mirror.

As part of the deal, Vernon will front a new primetime game-show called Beat The Star.

He will also be back on our screens with a new series of Family Fortunes.

Vernon – who is married to fellow TV personality Tess Daly - is expected to keep his Radio1 slot on Saturdays.
