Overview
- The BBC has ordered a seven-episode chat show for BBC One and iPlayer that will feature celebrity interviews in front of a studio audience.
- The series is produced by So Television and Little Arrow with executive producers Graham Stuart and Ruth Phillips, commissioned by Kalpna Patel-Knight and overseen by commissioning editor Neil McCallum.
- ITV Studios will handle international sales for the new format.
- The run is planned for the period when The Graham Norton Show is off-air, and Winkleman previously guest-hosted Norton’s show this year.
- Winkleman has stepped back from Strictly Come Dancing and her Radio 2 show but continues to host The Traitors, with season four launching around New Year’s Day; specific air dates and guests for the chat show will be announced later.
