Skinner pilots new discussion show

Frank Skinner is working on a new TV talk show, four years after his ITV series came to an end.

He is making a pilot episode of the show, Opinionated, next month – but the emphasis will be on letting the audience talk more than the guest.

Two comedians will examine both sides of an argument before Skinner opens the debate to the floor.

Producers promise ‘lively and thought-provoking debate… while keeping a very close eye on the funny side’.

See our Free Tickets page for details of how to be in the studio audience of the pilot recording, which takes place at BBC Television Centre on December 3.
