Celebrity Traitors star Alan Carr 'poached for new BBC game show'

Celebrity Traitors Star Alan Carr Joins New BBC Game Show

Alan Carr, known for his role on Celebrity Traitors and his ITV sitcom Changing Ends, is gaining even more attention. The BBC has reportedly "poached" the 49-year-old comedian for a new prime-time quiz show featuring celebrity guests.

This move follows rumors about a new TV deal for Carr, eight years after his Channel 4 talk show, Chatty Man, ended. According to The Sun, Alan was recently flown abroad to film a pilot in a glamorous European city.

"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."

The deal positions Carr in potential competition with his Celebrity Traitors co-star Jonathan Ross, who has recently renewed his contract with ITV to continue hosting The Jonathan Ross Show.

Summary

Alan Carr is stepping into a new high-profile role with the BBC after success on ITV, marking a significant moment in his television career.
