Davina McCall to host new ITV wellness series

Davina McCall is set to host a new ITV series called Eat, Cook, Move With Davina. The 59-year-old presenter will be joined by chefs, celebrity guests and health and fitness experts who will share “practical and useful advice” and “achievable ideas” that viewers can put into practice.

Cutting through the noise

The series aims to “cut through the noise” surrounding health and wellbeing, separating fact from fiction, debunking myths and exposing fads. Each episode will feature exercises designed for all levels, from fitness enthusiasts to complete beginners.

McCall said: “I love anything that helps people feel a little bit better without making life more complicated.

“This show is about all my favourite things: Brilliant food, really useful advice and finding ways to move that actually feel doable.

“Hopefully people will come away from every episode with something they want to try and that half an hour with me will inspire small changes that will add up to big things.”

Expert backing

Tom McLennan, managing director of Whisper Entertainment and executive producer, said: “Davina is an inspiration for so many reasons and it’s been a privilege to work with her on a series that is quite literally designed to make people feel good.

“At its heart, the show is about helping audiences discover simple changes that can improve their physical and mental wellbeing.

“We’re delighted to be bringing Davina’s passion, energy and authenticity to Saturday mornings and helping viewers start their weekends feeling positive and motivated.”
