Gabby Logan to host Wright Stuff spin-off

Gabby Logan is to present a new spin-off from The Wright Stuff for Channel Five.

Channel Five is to launch the spin-off, titled The Wright Stuff Extra, later this month. The format of the new show will be similar to its parent series with Logan joined in the studio by an expert to discuss topical issues of the day and will also include phone-ins – inviting members of the audience to give their views.

“I am really looking forward to joining the team at Channel 5 and excited to be hosting a live show where anything can happen,. The Wright Stuff is a daytime TV institution and I can’t wait to continue the conversation every weekday morning.” – Gabby Logan

The Wright Stuff launched on Channel 5 in 2000 and has been presented by Matthew Wright for its duration. The topical debate show has been a popular fixture of the C5 daytime schedules and, over time, has expanded its time on-air. Regular panellists on the show include Anne Diamond, Janet Ellis, Lowri Turner and Tracy-Ann Oberman.

The Wright Stuff Extra with Gabby Logan launches on Channel Five on Monday June 27th at 11.10am.
