Steph McGovern is set to present a new daily live programme on Channel 4.
The 37-year-old journalist and TV presenter will host the new morning show, aptly named \'The Steph Show\', from spring 2020alongside well-known co-hosts each week, and it will be broadcast live from the new home of Channel 4\'s national headquarters in Leeds in front of a live studio audience.
Steph said: "I\'m really chuffed to be creating my own live show with Channel 4 in Leeds.
"It\'s going to be nerve-wracking, but there\'s nothing I love more than finding out what makes people tick, whether it\'s a famous face or someone we haven\'t met yet who has a cracking story to tell.
"This is a dream come true for me and I can\'t wait to get started next year. Just a small matter of having a baby first."
Steph - who left her role as the main business presenter for \'BBC Breakfast\' - and her guest co-hosts will discuss a mix of entertainment, lifestyle and light current affairs as they meet a variety of guests from the worlds of showbiz, politics and beyond.
Jo Street, head of daytime at Channel 4, said: "Getting Steph to present the brand-new live daytime show is the best possible way to start my Channel 4 adventure.
"Steph is a brilliant broadcaster with great intelligence, warmth and wit ... and a good measure of cheek and mischief as well.
"She embodies all the qualities I want Channel 4 Daytime to be - and I know Steph is going to do a fantastic job as we start a daily conversation with our audience.
"Broadcasting this new show live from Leeds is an important moment for Channel 4 as we further cement our commitment to out-of-London commissioning and showcase the home of our new national HQ."
