Harry Hill plans a new TV format

...in which he surprises people by bursting out of a van

Harry Hill is planing in TV show in which he jumps out of a van in a busy place and spends a day with a member of the public nearby.

The comedian says he’s already pitching I’m Coming In Your House to broadcasters.

He explained: ‘I’m in ht back of a van. We arrive at a place – could be Bluewater shopping centre or the M3 Fleet Services  – a  place where there’s lots of people.

‘I burst out of the doors, go up to someone and say, "Hi what's your name?  Mind if I spend a day with you?" Then I follow them round and go back to their house.’

The former TV Burp host told Jamie Laing on his Great Company podcast: ‘Everyone's got a story. People are bored of celebrities.

‘The only difficulty is,  what if they've got a bad past? You go round the house and there’s a dead body?’
