Clare Balding has landed her own chat show which will see her interview some of the biggest names in sport.
The broadcaster, who was widely praised for her role in front of the cameras during the 2012 Olympics, will present the weekly show on the BT Sport channel.
She said: “I’m enthused by BT’s vision for sports coverage in the future and particularly their support of women’s sport, an issue about which I feel very strongly.
“This is an exciting new venture for me and I can’t wait to get started.”
Balding will continue working with the BBC as well as presenting Channel 4’s racing coverage alongside the new BT show which has a working title of Clare Balding Presents.
