ITV launch Emmerdale Bingo. Uniquely ITV have used a clip on the front of the site showing some favorite characters playing a game of bingo in the Woolpack they invite players to join in the fun.
The Woolpack is a fictional public house on the popular ITV soap opera Emmerdale. It has played host to many of the soap's storylines and is the focus of the programme. The Woolpack is where people meet up for a drink and to talk. Some of the biggest storylines of Emmerdale have involved the pub so it's no surprise they have chosen this venue to launch a fictional bingo night. The present Woolpack is located on the purpose built Emmerdale village set on the Harewood estate which is based on Esholt.
ITV Play is the company running the site it is a part of ITV. ITV is the biggest commercial television network in the UK.
