POINTLESS RETURNS WITH KONNIE HUQ AND ALEX BROOKER

BBC daytime quiz Pointless returns for new episodes later this month, and welcomes two new co-hosts.

The pair are two of six co-hosts across the series of daytime episodes of the hit BBC One show alongside Alexander Armstrong, following Richard Osman’s announcement last Summer that he was to step down from hosting the daytime series.

Konnie Huq, says: “Really looking forward to sitting at the esteemed Pointless computer and sharing my pearls of wisdom on the show! Can’t wait to get cracking, gonna go revise now!”

Alex Brooker, adds: “When you think of Richard Osman on Pointless, you think of his charm, wit and intelligence. I’m so proud to think the show have decided to go completely the opposite way with me! I’m so excited to be a part of such a brilliant show and can’t wait to work with Xander.”

New episodes of Pointless begin Monday 23rd January. Pointless is a Remarkable Entertainment (a Banijay UK company) production for BBC One.
