Holly Willoughby is soon set to return to an ITV show she used to host as a special celebrity guest.
Willoughby used to host ITV’s star-studded gameshow You Bet! alongside Stephen Mulhern, but quit her presenting role earlier this year due to scheduling conflicts.
However, she’s now set for a comeback to the series as it returns to screens later this year.
Mulhern will be hosting the new series solo and welcoming a new line-up of celebrity panellists onto the show.
The new series will see him take the show on tour across the UK as he welcomes contestants to take on even bigger challenges than ever before in a bid to win a cash prize.
