This Morning star lands huge new job hosting her own Christmas show on C4 with celeb pals

JOSIE GIBSON is returning to Channel 4 – after finding fame on Big Brother 14 years ago when the reality show, now at ITV, was on that channel.

I can reveal the host of This Morning will deliver pressie ideas in Ultimate Christmas Gift Guide, supported by celeb pals, mixologists, finance experts, gadget gurus and even wrapping whizzes.

They will review the latest festive buys for all budgets, offer money and time-saving hacks and reveal this year’s must-haves in collaboration with Smyths Toys Superstores.

Josie said of next month’s two-parter: “I love Christmas, so hopefully this show will help take out some of the stress. There’ll be festive laughs and great guests.”

In September, Gibson hinted they won’t be returning to This Morning after landing a surprising new solo job.

Josie was embarking on a journey exploring luxury travel, which meant she would step away from her This Morning spot for a while.

The solo show will look at first class airlines, five, six and even seven star hotels and premium airline seats.

The series will be produced by Honey Bee and Group M Motion Entertainment.

But it seemed Josie is more than happy about her new telly gig that delves into first class travel, as she shared: “I've got loads of things in the pipeline, I'm still very involved with This Morning, I'm very grateful for This Morning and everything they've helped me with because they grew me as a presenter.

“I should be around at Christmas on the [This Morning] sofa, so then I will get back on the road and try to make it all work as much as I can.

“It is going to be amazing because I'm going to be exploring how the other half live, like the first class travel.”

She continued to tell Express.co.uk: “You know when you walk through the airplane and you think, I wonder what is that way? I'm going to be seeing all the stuff that is the other way.

“I love that I can still experience things like that and it absolutely shocks me."

"It's a tough gig, but someone's got to do it," she joked. "I'm so happy that they've asked me, I'm really happy!

"We've got quite a few destinations to go to, so yeah we start filming this week."
