A regular on Loose Women, Judi Love has been performing stand-up for a decade, and is known for her appearances on MasterChef and Strictly Come Dancing.

The new show from ITVX will see four showcase gigs streamed live from the festival, featuring material from some of the best comedians on the circuit. The shows are curated by NextUp, known to comedy fans as a leading specialist streamer for British stand-up.

ITVX Presents: Edinburgh Fringe Live will feature slots for breakthrough acts, all of which are yet to be filled. Comics will only be booked for these spots once the Fringe is underway, ensuring audiences will get to see the freshest acts from the festival.

“If you can’t make it in person to the Edinburgh Fringe, do not worry,” said Judi Love. “You’ll be able to watch stand-up comedy, live from Edinburgh from your sofa! I’m truly excited to be hosting these four nights and sharing this experience with all these talented acts.”

“The comedy madness of the Edinburgh Fringe delivered with a lot of love, Judi Love!” said Nana Hughes, head of comedy at ITV. “What more could you want this summer?”
