Josie Gibson to host new Channel 4 show after This Morning hiatus

is set to grace with her own TV show, marking a return to the network 14 years after her Big Brother fame.

The 39 year old presenter began to establish herself as a television host following 's exit from the popular daytime programme. ITV chiefs, faced with the need to rotate presenters, brought Josie into the fold.

Her recent stint on last year also won over audiences, making her a firm favourite.

It's no surprise then that she was quickly chosen to front Ultimate Christmas Gift Guide. The show promises to bring together a star-studded cast including celebrity friends, mixologists, financial advisors, and tech experts.

Josie and her team will review the hottest Christmas gifts for every budget, share cost-cutting and time-saving tips, and unveil this year's must-have purchases in collaboration with Smyths Toys Superstores, reports .

The programme will be aired in two parts. Discussing the upcoming show with The Sun, Josie expressed her enthusiasm: "I love Christmas, so hopefully this show will help take out some of the stress. There'll be festive laughs and great guests."

Earlier in September, Josie revealed she would be taking a break from her role on This Morning to focus on another presenting opportunity.

The beloved TV personality is gearing up to take viewers on a journey of opulence as she investigates the world of upscale travel, from first-class flying to luxury accommodations and top-tier airline seats.

Chatting exclusively with Express.co.uk about her new venture, she expressed: "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."

She enthused over the upcoming experience: "It is going to be amazing because I'm going to be exploring how the other half live, like the first class travel. 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."

With a light-hearted approach, she added: "It's a tough gig, but someone's got to do it," followed by a chuckle. "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."

In anticipation of the new season of I'm A Celebrity, Josie has also disclosed that the reality show's challenges are just as daunting as they seem on screen.

In a chat with OK!, she admitted: "Yes! I'm not going to sugarcoat it, it's really hard and it takes you places, mentally and physically, that you didn't think you were going to go to. I really thought there'd be some element of a 'studio' to the camp, but there really isn't. It's an actual jungle and there's nowhere to hide. Viewers see every single version of someone."
