Bradley, 58, shared a photo to Instagram showing a casting call for the new programme, which has yet to be named.

It read: “We are looking for fun, confident big characters and groups of friends and families to come and take part in a brand new entertainment chat show pilot for ITV.

“If you are up for getting involved in our studio games and challenges alongside our brilliant celebrity guests – get in touch!”

He told Digital Spy that producers of both shows “plate-spin between the two of them.”

“That’s an ongoing contract I have with ITV so I have to take care of that,” he said. “Everyone here at the Beeb, especially [producer] Matt and his team, has been unbelievably accommodating.”
