Celebrity Traitors star Alan Carr 'poached for new BBC game show'

Alan Carr Joins New BBC Game Show

Alan Carr, known for his role on Celebrity Traitors and his ITV sitcom Changing Ends, has been recruited by the BBC for a brand new show. The comedian is gaining increased attention following his appearance as a Traitor on the popular BBC One gameshow.

New Prime-Time Quiz Show

The 49-year-old was reportedly flown abroad to film the pilot for a celebrity quiz show, according to The Sun. This move follows speculation about a fresh TV deal for Carr, eight years after his Channel 4 chat show, Chatty Man, concluded.

Competition Among Networks

The new contract could position Alan Carr in direct competition with his Celebrity Traitors co-star Jonathan Ross, who recently renewed his ITV talk show, The Jonathan Ross Show.

"Unquestionably, Alan is the hottest man on TV right now. Everyone wants a piece of him. But the BBC have acted quickly and last week he was jetted out to a swanky European city for a day of filming a pilot."
Summary

Alan Carr is experiencing a career boost as BBC secures him for a new celebrity quiz show, highlighting his rising popularity across networks.
