Davina McCall is preparing to host the first prime time BBC chat show since Michael Parkinson left the channel two years ago.

The Big Brother presenter will start her programme, called Davina, in the New Year. It will air at 8pm on Wednesdays.

According to the Daily Mirror, comedian Peter Kay and singer Charlotte Church have already been interviewed for the pilot.

BBC boss Peter Fincham commented: “BBC1 is her natural home.”

Must have taken them ages to think up the name for the programme!

Appears that Davina's new chat show starts next week ... found THIS ARTICLE online:

TV presenter Davina McCall has warned celebrities she may give them a tough time on her new talk show.

The 'Big Brother' host – who launches her new chat show next week - says stars won't necessarily have an easy time because she plans to get the best out of interviews.

The 38-year-old revealed: "I won’t be confrontational, try to embarrass someone, or make them do something ridiculous they'll regret. But if they get difficult with me, I'll give as good as I get. I'll earn my money."

The brunette TV star also revealed she's going to try not to be as excitable as she's been in the past. She told the Radio Times: "I may have grown out of that." She added: "I'll be a good girl, try to listen and not shout. I'll give it my best shot."

Davina's new TV show will be aired on BBC1 next week.

[Ruth]

I shall watch out of interest, but I've been finding Davina's act a bit tired over the past couple of years. She might be a lot different on a chat show though.

[Mike]

I definately won't be watching, never been a big fan of Davina she should just stick to BB in my opinion.

Or is it to be in the Jonathon Ross slot of a Friday night?
