Michael Ball to host new day time chat show

ITV1 Daytime have decided not to commission another series of David Dickinson’s  chat show, and instead the slot has been given to The Michael Ball Show which he will present every weekday afternoon over the summer months.

Michael’s show will be a topical mix of entertainment, discussion and showbiz glamour with the occasional musical treat thrown in from Ball. Michael will be chatting with established showbiz personalities and introducing some rising stars. Also experts will join him to discuss topics of the day and he will be given cooking lessons from showbiz chefs.

Michael Ball is still involved with the tour of Hairspray and is sharing the role of Edna Turnblad with Brian Conley and Michael Stark.  Ball is next due to appear as Edna at Manchester Opera House from 13th-31st July.
