Alison Hammond is reportedly set to front a new celebrity fly-on-the-wall series, which will offer a candid insight into stars’ lives.
The British television presenter, 50, has apparently secured some huge names for her show, Alison Hammond’s new Big Weekend, including actor Luke Evans and singers Perrie Edwards and Mel B.
According to The Sun, the series, produced by BBC Studios Entertainment, is set to air this summer.
It will follow Little Mix‘s Perrie, Dracula Untold star Luke, and Spice Girl Mel as they allow cameras into their lives to reveal what they’re really like behind the scenes.
A TV insider shared with the publication: ‘Alison’s new Big Weekend series is shaping up to be amazing and she has already filmed with some massive names.
‘The show offers a really candid insight into the stars’ lives.

Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards is reportedly one of the big names who have invited Alison’s camera crew into her home (pictured last year)
‘She literally moves in with them and then gets under their skin and sees what makes them tick.’
The source also noted that Perrie’s fans have never seen much of her home life, making this a ‘really revealing watch’. They added that no one would have expected Luke to sign up for a show like this.
Mel B is also described as a perfect fit for the show, thanks to her fantastic chemistry with Alison as the source added that the two ‘get on like a house on fire’.
According to the publication, at least three other major celebrities have welcomed Alison into their homes, with the new series running across six episodes on BBC One.
MailOnline has contacted the BBC and Alison’s representative for comment.
It comes after Alison missed This Morning for the third week in a row – just days after viewers called for her to be replaced on For The Love Of Dogs.
The 50-year-old, who co-presents the ITV show with Dermot O’Leary every Friday, was once again replaced by Josie Gibson, 40.
The show was already undergoing a major schedule shake-up due to coverage of The Grand National Festival at Aintree, meaning This Morning aired for an extra half hour, with no Loose Women following.

Alison’s absence came just seven days after she was replaced by Josie the previous Friday, with no explanation given.
Viewers were quick to voice their thoughts on social media, with many divided on the situation.
One wrote on X (formerly Twitter): ‘Should swap Alison for Josie,’ alongside a smiley face.
Another added: ‘@thismorning can watch today with Josie thank God no Hammond.’
But one viewer expressed their frustration: ‘Oh Lord above it’s Josie. I thought they’d got rid of her.’
One more joked: ‘Josie? Has Alison been caught up in the Heathrow chaos? Them flights to Jamaica and Florida #thismorning.’
This isn’t the first time Alison has been absent from the show.
