Angela Scanlon is set to front a new show for BBC Two looking back at the highlights from the noughties.
While her RTE Saturday night show remains on ice, the 10-part In the Noughties will see Scanlon and two celebrity guests looking back on a different year each week .
They will discuss their own favourite moments in film, music, drama, comedy, fashion and entertainment in every year between 2000 – 2009, and explain why it was so important in their lives.
Celebrity guests joining the Meath native across the series include Clara Amfo, Russell Kane, Amol Rajan and Kimberley Walsh.
Commenting on the new gig, Scanlon said: “I am delighted to have the opportunity to revisit ‘The Noughties’, remembering some of the wildest telly/pop culture moments and celebrating the highlights with my amazing array of guests.
“From fashion and sporting icons, TV talent shows to our favourite sitcoms and the stars that dominated the headlines... this decade was punchy!
“It also allowed me to wear a velour tracksuit with rhinestone boots (again) and for that I am forever grateful.
“I hope it will offer a little escape and take people on a trip down memory lane to a time where what The Beckhams wore was a deliciously pressing global matter.”
In the Noughties will premiere on BBC Two later this year.
