Chris & Rosie Ramsey are working on a new family entertainment show for TV.

The couple are taping a pilot episode of the show in Manchester later this month, promising ‘plenty of laughs, celebrity appearances, games and audience participation’. 

Producers Avalon have put out calls for fans who want to take part in some of the segments of the as-yet-untitled show, based on ideas that have already proved successful for the couple.

One involves airing grievances – but while the ‘what’s your beef?’ section of their podcast and BBC talk show featured romantic partners, the new programme will feature family members or best friends. 

A call-out for contributions adds: ‘What petty, menial, or gross things does your sister, brother, mum, dad, uncle, grandparent or best friend do that utterly annoys you and vice versa? This is the chance for both of you to air your beef - with Chris & Rosie's help.’

It adds: ‘Please note that both participants must be willing and happy to appear on the show.’

Also returning is the ‘it goes or I go’ segment, with a post on social media asking: ‘Does someone you love own something you hate? Now could be your chance to finally get rid of it! No item too big or small!’

News comes four months after it was reported that the couple’s BBC talk show had been shelved after two series.

It involved the married comedians talking to other celebrity couples about life, relationships and the pressures of fame and family with guests including Katherine Ryan and her husband Bobby Kootstra; Jack Whitehall and his father Michael; and Martin and Shirley Kemp.

The talk show launched on BBC Two in 2022 following the success of their Sh**ged Married Annoyed  podcast, before moving to BBC One for its second series last year.

But in July it was widely reported that the programme had been put on indefinite hold, with sources blaming a schedule clash.

However last month, the pair teased that they were working on a new project. 

Rosie told The Standard: ‘We filmed some TV stuff this year that’s not going to be on until next year. It’s frustrating because we can’t say anything about what we’ve done.’

Chris added: ‘There are some exciting things coming up guys. I do believe that’s the official line. It’s so [annoying] you film stuff and they go "don’t tell anyone until it comes out" and there’s a big announcement. I never understand, but that’s just the way these shows do these things. But there’s some really cool stuff coming up.

The new pilot  will be recorded on Thursday November 21 at Dock 10 Studios, MediaCity, Salford.

Chris mentioned the project in passing on the latest episode of their podcast, out today, but seemed more excited by the Cadbury factory store next to the studio.

He said: ’We're doing a pilot for a new TV show next month… and apparently, next to the studio that we're going to be working in there’s some kind of Cadbury's outlet that sells bags of smashed-up bits of Cadbury chocolate. Like Robin, our producer, has been off the sugar for quite some time'.
