Vanessa Feltz issues HUGE update on her new Channel 5 show as she’s set to welcome Corrie legend

VANESSA Feltz has issued a huge update on her upcoming Channel 5 show.

The national treasure is gearing up for her self-titled show, which starts next week.

Vanessa, 63, was welcomed onto Jeremy Vine today to give Channel 5 viewers a sneak peak of her forthcoming daytime programme.

Every weekday, she will take to the airwaves from 12:45pm for what the network has teased will be “appointment-to-view, heart-warming, hard-hitting, straight-talking television.”

Now, the former TalkTV star has revealed that her first celebrity guest will be none other than former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan.

The presenter teased that she will not be afraid to get “candid” in the studio with the former I'm A Celebrity personality about her personal life.

“Well, on the very first show, we have the wonderful Helen Flanagan, star of Corrie glamor, puss extraordinaire,” she explained as she praised her former Celebs Go Dating co-star.

Vanessa continued: “She's also very candid about all sorts of issues that she's had in life, it hasn't necessarily gone straightforwardly in every way.

“She had a sad split from the father of her children. She's found love again.”

Feltz added: “She's going to be, you know, a revelation. I think she's going to be fabulous.”

The longtime TV icon also teased future guests on the show which will include “Strictly legends” and even children of footballers.

Jeremy, 59, also teased that Vanessa will host her show from a bespoke new studio that reflects her personality.

The set will based on her home which she dubbed as “Feltz Towers,”; which she insisted will include much of the colour pink and will be full of rose decorations.

Fans within the ‘Vanessaverse' will be familiar with the elaborate interior design of her Victorian London mansion, which regularly feature on her YouTube channel.

Recently, the former Celebrity Big Brother icon gave a sneak peak into her home as left fans in hysterics with her parody of Meghan Markle‘s Netflix lifestyle show.

The digital series, With Love Vanessa, shows the veteran TV presenter ‘elevating' everyday food items, from Pot Noodles to Custard Cream biscuits.

This comes after she opened up on her exit from This Morning, as she insisted that far from leaving the ITV flagship programme, she just physically cannot do both shows.

She told The Metro: “I love This Morning, I would never leave it, I couldn’t love it more.

“I would happily have stayed and gone on the back of a motorbike from the This Morning studio straight to Channel 5 and done both.

“I almost believed I’d be able to do that, but I think apparently, it’s not the way it’s done... but I’d have done it, and I think they would have been happy for me to do it too.”

She added: “Yes I’m not doing it but I didn’t leave, I am just doing something else, that’s all.”

Vanessa starts Monday, March 24th at 12:45pm on 5.
