TFI Friday: Where are they now?
Chris Evans, Will Macdonald, Andrew the Barman - almost 20 years on what are the stars of episode one doing now?
www.mirror.co.ukI don’t have live updates right now, but here’s what’s publicly known about TFI Friday and Chris Evans in recent years.
- Chris Evans launched a revival of TFI Friday in 2024–2025 era with a one-off special and discussions of a broader return, but plans shifted to streaming/online formats rather than a traditional TV broadcast .
- Historically, Evans’ involvement with TFI Friday has been intermittent: the show originally ran on Channel 4 from 1996–2000, with Evans hosting the initial series before other factors led to changes in his TV commitments . A later revival was framed as a temporary or limited run rather than a permanent return on traditional television .
- Reports from various outlets over the years suggested that Evans’ other projects (notably Top Gear) affected how long a sustained TFI Friday run could last, fueling speculation about “the long goodbye” or limited series rather than ongoing seasons .
