Alison Hammond to host reboot of Hole in the Wall
According to reports, Alison will be the host of Hole in the Wall when it returns to the BBC.
Hole in the Wall originally ran for two series between 2008 and 2009.
The show, based on a Japanese TV format, sees a bunch of lycra-wearing celebrities trying to fit through bizarre shapes in an approaching wall. Each week, a team of celebs would compete to win a grand prize of £10,000 for charity.
The first series was hosted by Dale Winton. Strictly judge Anton Du Beke then replaced him as host for the second series.
Now, 16 years later, it looks like Alison will be the new face of the show!
Alison signs up for Hole in the Wall
Speaking to The Sun, a source claimed the BBC is “over the moon” to have landed Alison for the show.
“Hole In The Wall got great ratings when it first came out so the Beeb have decided to bring it back. They are currently filming the pilot to see how it shapes up. They wanted to sign Alison and she jumped at the chance to do it,” they claimed.
“She’s one of TV’s most in-demand stars right now and the Beeb is over the moon that they’ve signed her,” they then continued.
“Alison adores her job and is always on the lookout for shows where she can have a real laugh -that’s why she loves presenting Bake Off and This Morning. They are light-hearted and fun,” they then added.
