The host of the surprise second series of The Edge is apparently none other than Gabby Logan. I can’t imagine her doing the same balls related “gags” with quite as much gusto as Mark Benton, but there we are. I wonder if they’ve made some changes to the format? We will endeavour to find out.
The show is filming right now at Elstree, tickets through the BBC site.
Edit: I was hoping to get a ticket to watch this afternoon (Sunday) but I was either too last minute booking on Friday afternoon or they don’t want me. Anyway the suggestion is they have indeed made changes to the sizes of the Edge on each lane, but whether they’ve corrected the issue of too much work for not much fun remains so far a mystery.
Seems she literally will present anything.
I don’t think she’s presented a game show that’s lasted more than 2 series.
DOND moving to 1:10pm according to tweets…this has got to be it.
Just picking up on a conversation I saw on your Twitter feed – I think The Vault is the only example I can think of of a show changing host between series 1 and 2.
Who’s Mark Denton? 😀 It was Mark BENTON, wasn’t it?
What a balls up! Funnily enough I spent a minute trying to decide if the name was correct and rather than look it up just decided that it ‘sounded right’.
Quality journalism, it’s been amended thanks.
I personally demand the inevitable third series be hosted by a man named Mark Denton.
What’s the betting not one single thing about the format will have been changed? 🙂
There’s a small chance I might be able to get to one of the recordings so perhaps we’ll know first hand.
Does anyone by any chance how the following shows rated with +1
– Celebrity Big Brother
– 8 Out of 10 Cats does Countdown
– The Last Leg
