This Morning's Alison Hammond eyes up her own star-studded primetime chat show

Breakfast telly presenter Alison Hammond has set her sights on a Saturday-night chat show.

She has even planned the format, with space for an interview with a "mega- star", and chats with a "normal person doing something amazing".

Alison, 46, who co-hosts This Morning on Fridays, told My Weekly : "There’s a section all about me and what I’ve been up to.

"Then more of a local celebrity, like Peter Andre. Then I’ll finish off the show with another big number all about me, with dancers."

Alison was due to film a chat show pilot, but it was shelved due to Covid.

She said: "I would really love to have my own show called Alison Hammond.

"We have to put this out into the universe."

The star - who co-hosts This Morning every Friday alongside Dermot O'Leary - is no stranger to singing for the public, after hosting karaoke nights on her Instagram during lockdown.

In January, she said: "I’d like to invite you to my karaoke evening this evening at seven o'clock.

"I bought myself a karaoke machine for Christmas because no one else did.

"I’m going to do some karaoke tonight so come and join me. I’m going to do it on Instagram Live. Even if nobody comes, I’ll just sing to myself like I do anyway."
