Bill tidies David's room and finds his diary.
Extraordinary, maybe, but there are £6 million of unclaimed premium bonds just waiting for their owners to appear. And there are vast numbers of raffle prizes and inheritances that have never been claimed, either.
This programme, presented by David Frost with Adrian Mills and Carol Smillie, aims to unite prizes with prize winners and inheritances with inheritors. Producer Richard Woolfe describes it as "a new people show" which he sees as being interactive in the same way as Crimewatch - viewers will be asked to phone in with information and there will be an update at 10.20pm. If this live special is successful, a series could follow.
Among tonight's items is a report on how shares in West Ham United Football Club, bought at the turn of the century for one shilling, are now worth £600 each.
To take part, call FreeCall on [number removed] - lines are open until 10.30pm.
