The programme allows people to place their chips on the roulette table by watching online or on TV and phoning the designated call centre number or playing via the internet. ''Live Roulette'' was then rebranded as SuperCasino.com. This new brand encompasses many live dealer games including multiple versions of roulette and blackjack. ==Overview== ''Live Roulette'' was the brainchild of Interactive TV format developer David Wainwright and was first broadcast under the name ''Vegas 24/7'' on 23 June 2005 on Sky channel 274 and aired between 3pm and 11pm. The show began as an experiment to see if a gaming show of that type would work on television and soon moved to a new time slot of 6pm-2am in response to feedback from the players. On 25 September 2006 the show added an additional two-hour extension from 2am-4am, where the presenter based format was replaced by a focus on the wheel and the numbers being spun.
