Fan-favourite comedian preparing to make huge TV comeback in new BBC quiz show The Answer Run


The comedian, 42, who is set to film 25 episodes in Glasgow next month, will host the new gameshow, which will air on BBC1 later this year.

And this weekend the star is returning to ITV prime time on Sunday night hosting The National Lottery's New Year's Eve Big Bash which airs at 6pm. The show will see Jason's return to ITV following the decision to axe talent series Starstruck, in which he appeared as a judge alongside Shania Twain, Beverley Knight and Adam Lambert. However, Jason has provided hope for fans of the show that it could one day return, admitting it's been paused, rather than gone for good, as ITV wanted to prioritise new reality talent series Mamma Mia!
