Gala TV reveals bingo bulls have all the luck

Taureans are the luckiest sign of the zodiac, according to new research released by interactive bingo channel, Gala TV.

To celebrate the return of its popular ’Horoscope Bingo’ show in September, Gala TV has revealed the effects the stars have on the fate of Britain’s bingo fans.

Having compared the amounts won and the number of bets placed between 01/07/08 and 30/06/09 on Gala TV among its UK players, it seems Taureans top the poll, while Virgos are the unluckiest with over 35% less wins.

The show’s star, top clairvoyant and astrologer Claire Petulengro, said: “Taureans are known for being the luckiest sign of the zodiac and have a wonderful ability to keep their eyes on the prize. This means they will slowly and steadily get the things they want. Unlucky Virgos are generally more level headed and weigh up the options carefully.”

The research also uncovered Cancerians like to take the most risks when it comes to playing bingo games on Gala TV, although they do not win most frequently.

“Cancerians are instinctive and quick to trust their gut,” said Claire, “They are excellent strategists and good at making pincer movements to close a deal. Once they get the prize, they won’t ever let go.”

Librans are slightly more cautious players, playing 30% less games than Cancerians. Claire said: "Although Librans appreciate money and what it can buy, they will have saved up for the splurge.

“All signs of the zodiac have key traits which mean they react differently in certain situations. However, all star signs have the potential for lady luck to shine, as the planets are moving all the time.”

From September 4, 2009, Claire will be co-hosting Gala TV’s hour-long ’Horoscope Bingo’ show, which will provide its game-play community with insightful star sign predictions as well as lucky bingo tips and eight bingo games.

During the live interactive show which starts at 8pm and is broadcast on Sky, Freesat channel 861 and streamed on the Gala Bingo website, Gala TV’s playing community will be able to text or email Claire their own horoscope-related questions and find out when their lucky day is.

’Horoscope Bingo’ follows Gala TV’s previous monthly-themed shows, which include ’Soap Star Bingo’, ’Showbiz Bingo’, ’Housemate Bingo’ and ’Don’t you just love Fridays’.
