The Michael McIntyre Chat Show Première Date Announced

The BBC have today announced the airdate of the first episode of their upcoming talk show The Michael McIntyre Chat Show. Hosted by (and we bet you won't have seen this one coming) comedian and Britain's Got Talent judge Michael McIntyre, the programme's first season will comprise of six one-hour instalments, broadcasting on Monday evenings so as to avoid competition with the likes of Graham Norton, Alan Carr or Jonathan Ross over the weekend.

First up on the slate of guests in the series are Lily Allen, Lord Alan Sugar and Sir Terry Wogan. Presumably each of these British icons will be on hand to promote an upcoming release in one form or another, but for now, all we have got confirmed from the BBC Press Office is that Allen is doing the rounds for her new single Air Balloon. Short of a drastic alteration to the traditional chat show format, expect a live performance of the song (and perhaps her dazzling seasonal cover of Keane's Somewhere Only We Know, if we're lucky?) to round off proceedings as well. More of McIntyre's guests will be announced in due course, and you'll be the first to know right here when they're made official.

The Michael McIntyre Chat Show débuts on BBC One this March 10th.
