Freddie Flintoff

The 90 minute film will see Flintoff team up once more with South Shore, who produces the Field of Dreams series that sees the former England cricketer recruit disadvantaged Preston boys for a new team.

While recording a segment for Top Gear in December 2022, Flintoff suffered a near-fatal crash that threw the second series into doubt. But after a year of recovery, he returned to filming in late 2023 for the programme to air the following summer.

ITV adds to their slate of gripping dramas with the brand-new crime procedural Honour, starring Keeley Hawes (Bodyguard).

The series follows the true story of the murder of 20-year-old Londoner Banaz Mahmod in 2006.

The five-part series will see two crews of six race from Cornwall all the way to the Scottish Isles, completing a series of on-shore challenges along the way to gain advantages over their opposition.

This intense challenge will see the celebrity crews tackle the formidable cliffs of the UK’s stunning coastline and the wild wind and waves at sea.

Taking to the boats will be British politician and author Tom Watson, Olympic gold medallist and sports presenter Denise Lewis OBE, and English supermodel and presenter Jodie Kidd.

Freddie Flintoff On Bulimia will see Flintoff try to understand the causes and impact of his personal struggles with bulimia and explore why eating disorders are so hidden in men.

Flintoff has gone from being one of Britain’s best loved sporting heroes to having a successful screen career, which includes the coveted role as a Top Gear presenter.

The Trial of Christine Keeler

BBC One, 9pm

The Profumo affair was the scandal that rocked a nation and is still being talked about half a century later.

Following the departures of host Matt LeBlanc and co-presenter Rory Reid after the next series, McGuinness and Flintoff will join Chris Harris in a new all-British line-up of Top Gear.

Sabine Schmitz will remain in the Top Gear family with Reid continuing to host Top Gear spin-off Extra Gear on BBC Two.

The announcement took place near the River Thames in London as a photocall, as the new line-up was joined by the real stars of the show: a blue Porsche 911 GT2RS and a red Aston Martin DSB Superleggera.
