coin tosses

TV I've just received this audience request email. Not a joke:
Hello there!

We thought that you might be interested to know that tickets are now available for a brand new series in Manchester hosted by JLC himself! As with all of our shows, the tickets are FREE!

HEADS OR TAILS with Justin Lee Collins

Heads or Tails is a brand new prime-time game show hosted by Justin Lee Collins.

The game is based on contestants correctly calling the results of a series of 'Heads or Tails' coin flips to win a cash sum. On the way they can elicit the help and advice of relatives, friends and a celebrity guest as to what their call should be. The object is for the player to amass as much money and as many lives as they can into a prize fund that becomes the basis for a 'Double or Halve your Money' end game.

You, our audience, will be encouraged to actively support the player throughout.

If you would like to join us for this lively, fun show at Granada Studios, Manchester during October, then apply now!
Notice at no point does it call them coin tosses like everyone else in the galaxy. Wonder why.

Does Peter Serafinowicz get royalties on this?

I don't know. I've just sent him a tweet and asked him.
