New C4 Daytime Show For Phil Spencer

Phil Spencer comes to the aid of homeowners across the UK trapped in properties they just cannot seem to sell in a new daytime series for Channel 4.

In Phil Spencer: Secret Agent, Spencer will be sent in to sell houses stuck on the market. But before he meets the struggling homeowners he will don his surveyor's hat to assess the property, looking at it through the eyes of a buyer, as well as researching the local area and housing market.

The series will have a four-week run in October.

Phil Spencer said: "Taking on a project to help get the housing market moving again is incredibly exciting. By working right across the country advising both buyers and sellers I'll be trying to broker as many deals as possible. It's a big challenge, but my aim is to make a real difference in the market. And just to up the ante I'm always going to be focusing on one particularly hard home to shift."

Michaela, who has also had stints on Countryfile, will appear alongside Chris and Martin Hughes-Games.

She said: "I am really excited to be joining the Autumnwatch Live team, it's a great opportunity to take a close look at the UK's amazing wildlife across the season.

"It's always such a pleasure making programmes for an appreciative audience and I know that Autumnwatch has such loyal and enthusiastic viewers. I'm looking forward to working with Martin, and being reunited with Chris - he has such incredible knowledge and we've always had a great relationship."

Bruce Forsyth

Sir Bruce Forsyth has said that their is "room" for both Strictly Come Dancing and The X Factor on TV.

BBC One controller Danny Cohen has confirmed that the two Saturday night shows will not clash.

However, Forsyth has said he thinks the ballroom dance competition is more family-friendly than The X Factor.

He told the TV Times: It's probably the only family show on TV, and I'm including The X Factor in that, because we get a very varied audience from children to old people.

"It's what I've been used to all my life, working to family audiences, whereas The X Factor is mainly watched by teenagers.

"They get wonderful ratings and good luck to them, there's room for two big shows on television and I'm so glad that we're both on."
