Celebrity Traitors Star Alan Carr Joins New BBC Game Show
Alan Carr, known for his role on the popular BBC One gameshow Celebrity Traitors and his ITV sitcom Changing Ends, is set to gain even more exposure. The 49-year-old comedian has reportedly been "poached" by the BBC for a fresh prime-time quiz show featuring celebrity guests.
New Opportunity Abroad
According to The Sun, Alan was recently flown to a luxury European city to film a pilot for the new series. This move comes amid speculation about a new TV deal for Carr, eight years after his Channel 4 talk show, Chatty Man, ended.
Competition Among TV Stars
The potential deal positions Alan Carr in direct competition with his Celebrity Traitors co-star Jonathan Ross, who has extended his contract to continue hosting The Jonathan Ross Show on ITV.
"Unquestionably, Alan is the hottest man on TV right now. Everyone wants a piece of him. But the BBC have acted quickly and last week he was jetted out to a swanky European city for a day of filming a pilot."
Summary
Alan Carr is swiftly expanding his television presence, moving from ITV comedy to hosting a new BBC quiz show with celebrity guests.
