Celebrity Traitors star Alan Carr 'poached for new BBC game show'
Alan Carr, known for his hit sitcom Changing Ends on ITV and his recent appearance on the BBC One show Celebrity Traitors, is reportedly moving to a new BBC project. The comedian and television presenter is said to have been recruited by the broadcaster for a new game show format.
According to reports, Alan, 49, has been flown abroad to film a pilot for a new prime-time quiz show featuring celebrity guests. This marks another major opportunity for the entertainer, coming eight years after his popular Channel 4 talk show Chatty Man ended.
The move could see Alan competing directly with fellow Celebrity Traitors participant Jonathan Ross, who recently renewed his ITV contract for The Jonathan Ross Show.
“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,” said a source.

Alan Carr has built a varied career across multiple networks, blending humor and charm in hosting roles and his own creative projects. His transition to a BBC quiz show suggests continued demand for his engaging on-screen personality.
