SORT Your Life Out is coming back for a seventh series, with host Stacey Solomon having wrapped filming and a release date earmarked for spring 2027.

Since the BBC One show launched in 2021, it has become a phenomenon, with great viewing figures as well as spawning a podcast spin-off, Sort Your Life Out Unpacked.
A BBC insider said: “Stacey doesn’t just get big viewing figures, with her massive online presence she also draws in the very important younger market for the Beeb.

Thank you!
“Which is why she’s now having to juggle so many projects because she also has another series of Stacey & Joe out later this year.”
Series six of Sort Your Life Out had more than three million viewers per episode and, along with the podcast, racked up 30million viewer hours.

Bosses are now hunting for families to take part in the new series.

MONTY DON is giving the two Michaels, Palin and Portillo, a run for their air miles – with yet another series of his travel show.
Having already filmed Monty Don’s Italian Gardens, French Gardens, Japanese Gardens, American Gardens, Adriatic Gardens and, most recently, Rhineland Gardens, he’s now off to island-hop around the Mediterranean for BBC Two.
Monty revealed: “We are going to start filming Island Gardens this autumn.
“So we’ll go to the Canaries, we’ll go to Sicily, we’ll go to the Greek islands . . . mainly the Mediterranean.”
And if the BBC doesn’t run out of money, the Gardeners’ World host says he would love to film Scandinavian Gardens, travelling through Finland, Norway, Sweden and Denmark.
But Monty told the Good Food podcast: “It’s getting harder and harder to get these programmes commissioned.”

DAVID TENNANT is to star in a new series of gritty prison drama Time.
He plays Bobby Bailey, a custodial manager at a young offenders’ institution, in season three of the show written by Jimmy McGovern.

Siobhan starred in series one, which was set in a men’s prison, alongside Stephen Graham and Sean Bean.
Series two, in a women’s jail, featured Jodie Whittaker and Bella Ramsey.
Series three, filming later this year, will explore the impact of locking up teens.
Ex-EastEnder Jo Joyner and Boiling Point’s Vinette Robinson also feature.

TECH A BREAK, SAYS GK
LOOSE Women’s GK Barry says she had to cut herself off from her online life to save her “from the depths of hell”.
Giving outrageous takes on life through social media got her recognised – but GK says it almost got her cancelled too.
The I’m A Celebrity star, who this week was announced as a new Radio 1 DJ, feels better for stepping back from it.
“Separating yourself from online is important,” she told a Royal Television Society Futures event in London.
“I’ve also just recently learnt to put your phone down. I didn’t realise there was a life without it – and it’s lovely.
“Social media is not a real place, otherwise I’d be in the depths of hell right now.”
