After completing a hugely successful sold-out arena tour and starring in
the latest series of Doctor Who, John is back for six more shows bringing
viewers a mix of his trademark everyman stand-up, reviewing the week’s
events and shooting the breeze with some very special celebrity guests from
the world of film, TV, music and sport.
Co-produced by So Television and Lola TV, the chat show launched earlier
this year and stars from last series included Courteney Cox, Hugh
Bonneville, Jason Manford, Maya Jama, Michelle Keegan, Bill Bailey, James
Nesbitt and Oti Mabuse.
The new series will be preceded by The John Bishop End of Year Show, an
irreverent look back at 2022.
John said:
“I was delighted with the response to the first series. It was great to
give viewers a Saturday night show that offered an entertaining mix of
comedy, interesting guests and topical discussion. I can’t wait to do
another series. And before that, I’m really looking forward to my end of
year show – but its been such a quiet year, I don’t know what I will talk
about..!”
Katie Rawcliffe, Head of Entertainment Commissioning, ITV said:
“We are thrilled to have John back at the helm bringing his energy to the
jam-packed bumper schedule on Saturday nights on ITV. With his comedic
brilliance and captivating style, I can’t wait to see what he has up his
sleeve.”
