star will work with fellow comedian and satirist Andrew Doyle on the show, which he says will encourage “proper argument”.: “The nice thing about talking to the GB News audience is that they may not be used to hearing the sort of things I’ll be saying.”“I was approached and I didn’t know who they were,” John said. “I don’t know much about modern television because I’ve pretty much given up on it – English television.
He added: “Then I met one or two of the people concerned and had a dinner with them and I liked them very much.John said he would discuss so-called cancel culture and “woke” politics on his show. “The BBC have not come to me and said, ‘Would you like to have some one-hour shows?’ and if they did, I would say, ‘Not on your nelly!’ I wouldn’t get five minutes into the first show before I’d been cancelled or censored,” he added to BBC Radio 4.GB News currently has a roster of presenters including Eamonn Holmes, Alistair Stewart, Anne Diamond and Nigel Farage.
