In 2016, Peregrini returned to television with Fabio Fazio for the remake of "Rischiatutto". Despite the lack of public or notable information about his professional career or achievements in quiz shows, television programs, collaborations, or musical compositions, Peregrini will be remembered as a man full of curiosity, lightheartedness, and availability until his last days.
The family asks for privacy during this difficult time. Rest in peace, Ludovico Peregrini.
In the span of his five-decade television career, Ludovico Peregrini, the inflexible enforcer of rules on "Rischiatutto", also enjoyed a passion for other forms of entertainment, being a composer of songs for artists like Mino Reitano, Toto Cutugno, and Mina, and co-writing the Festival di Sanremo in 1997.
