Fans of Michael McIntyre’s Big Show have plenty to look forward to as the beloved programme returns for its eighth season this Saturday.
Since its debut in 2015, the show has been a favorite among viewers for its unique blend of comedy, surprises, and audience interaction.
This season promises fresh twists, with host Michael McIntyre unveiling a brand-new segment that’s sure to capture hearts and laughter alike.
New Segment: “Remember Me”
One of the standout features of the upcoming season is a fresh addition called Remember Me. Michael explained the premise, saying, “A celebrity sits in the Royal Box, and a person from any time in their past appears on stage.”
The surprise guest could be anyone—from a midwife who delivered them to a long-lost friend or even a memorable holiday romance.
The comedian teased some of the celebrities participating in the segment, including Miranda Hart, Alan Carr, and Holly Willoughby. He added, “The results are absolutely hilarious!”
Star-Studded Lineup
The upcoming series features a host of big names, ensuring an unforgettable viewing experience. Michael shared that Send to All, a fan-favorite segment where celebrities allow Michael to send humorous messages from their phones, will include appearances by Michael Sheen, Judi Love, and Tony Bellew.
The Unexpected Star segment, where unsuspecting talents are invited to perform, will spotlight incredible guests like Heather Small, Marti Pellow, and Justin Hawkins.
Michael also revealed that the iconic Midnight Gameshow, where participants are surprised in their sleep, will return with memorable moments. This season will feature Sam Thompson and Zara McDermott, who are hilariously caught off guard together despite their recent split, as well as Josh Widdicombe and others.
Adding to the excitement, celebrity cameos from stars like Jamie Oliver, Olly Murs, and Luke Littler will keep the surprises coming throughout the series.
Behind-the-Scenes Fun
The show’s filming process hasn’t been without its share of laughter and awkward moments. Earlier this week, a clip featuring Zara McDermott and Sam Thompson from a Midnight Gameshow segment surfaced. The former couple, who announced their breakup last month, were hilariously surprised while in bed—a moment that promises to be one of the series’ highlights.
Michael McIntyre’s Expanding Empire
In addition to Big Show, Michael’s other projects are also undergoing exciting changes. His hit BBC show The Wheel, which combines trivia and luck, recently announced two major updates for its fifth season. Michael’s comedic charm and innovative ideas continue to make his shows must-watch television.
Reflecting on the upcoming season, Michael shared a humorous anecdote from filming, revealing how he brought The Wheel on the road. He explained, “We took the ‘Wheel on Wheels’ van to Birmingham and ended up at an Indian takeaway restaurant where they were playing The Wheel on TV. I hid behind the till and popped up whenever someone came in, asking them questions to win their food and prizes.”
