Johm Bishop is to have is own chat show.

The superstar stand-up will host John Bishop: In Conversation With... for the UKTV digital channel W. Each week the 10-part one hour show will feature Bishop chatting to a household name to discover the person behind the public persona in a series of intimate and revealing one-on-one interviews.

Amanda Holden will also have a new series on the channel, entitled I've Got Something To Tell You, in which ordinary people will reveal their secrets. 

Steve North, W's general manager, said, “We want W to be the home of smart escapism, with UKTV Originals sitting alongside our top shows like EastEnders.  Adding gems like I’ve Got Something To Tell You and John Bishop: In Conversation With... is helping to build a strong channel with shows that our viewers will love.  We are really excited to welcome John Bishop and Amanda Holden to the W family and we look forward to seeing the new shows uncover some of Britain’s best stories and secrets.”
