Question Time returns to BBC

\'Question Time\' is returning to the BBC following a summer hiatus.

The topical debate programme - which is fronted by Fiona Bruce - will be back on screens on Thursday (17.09.20) to bring together guests from the world of politics to answer questions from the public.

Fiona said: "I can\'t wait to get started with \'Question Time\'. We\'re coming back on air at a time where our elected representatives are making crucial decisions that will affect all of us, from coronavirus to Brexit.

"What better time for our audience to be able to make their views heard and get their questions answered?"

The show will return with its first stop at Oldham and followed next week by Chingford with a virtual audience, who will be projected onto a large virtual wall in the studio.

They will put their questions to a panel of elected representatives, experts and people from a variety of backgrounds and perspectives, with topics around Covid-19, local lockdowns, returning to work, schools and universities, the economy and the looming deadlines over Brexit.

Meanwhile, Fiona previously revealed she was physically ill for a whole year after she took on too much work.

The 56-year-old host also presents BBC News, \'Antiques Roadshow\' and \'Fake Or Fortune\', and has opened up about her past struggle with balancing work and home life, and how she suffered because she took on a "never-ending list of things to do".

She explained: "I have had years when I\'ve tried to cram more things in. I had one year, five or six years ago, where I just became ill. Physically, I just couldn\'t do it all.

"I wasn\'t seriously ill but it was a bit of a wake-up call. I remember thinking that I just felt too tired so I became more judicious about what I chose to do and not do.

"Part of it is work, but there are a number of charities I\'m closely associated with. I get asked by several other charities a week and there is a never-ending list of things you could do."
