Alison Hammond to Host BBC’s Hole In The Wall Reboot After Successful Pilot

Alison Hammond is reportedly being eyed by BBC bosses to host its upcoming Hole In The Wall reboot.

The bubbly This Morning presenter, 50, impressed with her role in a pilot for the revival, and it’s now been greenlit for a full series, 

It originally aired from 2008 to 2009 and featured celebrities trying to fit through moving wall cut-outs to avoid being pushed into a pool of water.

A source told The Mirror: ‘Alison made a splash in the pilot so it was a no-brainer for bosses.

‘It’s the perfect fit for her. It’s fun, exciting and doesn’t take itself too seriously – just like Alison.’

The show was previously hosted by Dale Winton, with star Anton Du Beke later taking over to front the show.

The bubbly This Morning presenter is reportedly being eyed-up by the Beeb to be the face of the new series, having been a contestant on the show in the past.

It’s thought that filming for the revival will take place later this year, and it will hit screens in 2026.

MailOnline has reached out tro representatives for Alison Hammon and the BBC for comment. 

The TV show is based on a Japanese format and sees a host of lycra-clad celebrities try to squeeze through odd-shaped holes in a moving wall.

The presenter shouts: ‘Bring on the wall!’ for it to be activated.

Each week, two teams of television personalities competed for £10,000 in prize money to be donated to their chosen charity. 

It’s the latest telly job for Alison, who is extremely in demand at the moment.

Her rarely-seen sister recently made her TV debut as the pair teamed up for Celebrity Gogglebox.

The This Morning presenter sat down to watch the latest shows alongside her sister Saundra and son Aidan on a recent instalment of the Channel 4 programme.

The TV star expressed how thrilled she was to be joined by her son and sister, describing Saundra as ‘fabulous’.

She said: ‘I’m so excited to be doing Celebrity Gogglebox with my son Aidan.

‘We’ve always loved watching telly together, and now we get to do it on the sofa for the nation!

‘It’s a real family affair too, because my fabulous sister Saundra is getting involved as well. Expect laughs, eye-rolls, and lots of commentary, classic Hammond style!’
