Presenter Gabby Logan has landed a new discussion show for Channel 5.

The BBC sport host is to front a new spin-off of C5’s popular morning series The Wright Stuff each morning, from June 27.

She will be joined each weekday by experts to discuss topical issues in front of a live studio audience.

The Wright Stuff Extra with Gabby Logan will be filmed in the same studio as the main show.

Logan will continue with her BBC TV sporting roles, although she stepped down as a presenter for Radio 5 Live earlier this year. The Wright Stuff has been presented by Matthew Wright for more than a decade.

Logan said: “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 conversations every weekday morning.”

Andrew O’Connell, Channel 5’s head of factual, news & current affairs, said: “Her vast experience will undoubtedly contribute to intelligent and lively debate on the show and I know Gabby is someone that our audience will be drawn to watch.”

The Wright Stuff Extra with Gabby Logan will broadcast each day at 11.10am.
