God's Gift was a British dating game show that aired on ITV from 4 January 1996 to 3 April 1998. The first series was presented by Davina McCall and Claudia Winkleman hosted the second series. The show's title came from the phrase "God's gift to women", i.e. an ironic description of a would-be Casanova.

Format

Each week, five male contestants would vie with each other to win the affections and votes of a female audience (or a male audience on "gay specials") by participating in a series of facetious games designed to "test" their sex appeal. The winner's prize would be to take an audience member of his choice out on a date, which was then filmed for broadcast in the following week's show.

Broadcast

The series was screened overnight on ITV, the day and time of the broadcasts and repeat depended on the nighttime feed, although it was dropped by Yorkshire and Tyne Tees Television part-way through series one.
