John Bishop Returns with Six New Shows After Doctor Who & Sold-Out Tour
John Bishop is back on our screens! Fresh from a smash-hit sold-out arena tour and starring in the latest series of Doctor Who, he’s returning for six brand new shows. Expect his classic everyman stand-up, sharp takes on the week’s headlines, and banter with top celebrity guests from film, TV, music, and sport.
Star-Studded Line-Up and Top-Notch Production
Co-produced by So Television and Lola TV, John’s chat show kicked off earlier this year with a bang. Last series featured big names like Courteney Cox, Hugh Bonneville, Jason Manford, Maya Jama, Michelle Keegan, Bill Bailey, James Nesbitt, and Oti Mabuse. The new run promises even more laughs and star power.
Special End of Year Show to Wrap Up 2022
The new series launches right after The John Bishop End of Year Show, a cheeky roundup of 2022’s biggest moments.
John Bishop 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 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 it’s been such a quiet year, I don’t know what I will talk about..!”
Katie Rawcliffe, Head of Entertainment Commissioning at 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.”
