Jonathan Ross presents his very own sofa programme on ITV, aptly titled The Jonathan Ross Show.
Following the conclusion of his BBC show, Friday Night with Jonathan Ross, the comedy programme airs on Saturday nights.
Over the years, he has welcomed global names onto his leather sofa, including the likes of Millie Bobby Brown, Britney Spears, and Taylor Swift.
For the second time in the history of the show, no new episodes will air in the autumn in a huge schedule shake-up.

The last time the programme was disrupted was last year due to the Rugby World Cup.

However, no reason has yet been given behind the mysterious decision by bosses.
Instead, the show will make a grand return next year, in the first half of 2025.
