Do You Know Your Place host pulled out at last minute 'I can't do it'

The host of the new BBC gameshow 'Do You Know Your Place?' pulled out at the last minute, leading to Vernon Kay stepping in as the main host.

The BBC is set to launch a brand new gameshow titled 'Do You Know Your Place?' on February 23, featuring Vernon Kay as the host alongside co-presenter Paul Gorton, known from 'The Traitors'. Gorton had originally intended to be a guest on the show until a last-minute change led to him co-hosting due to the unavailability of the originally booked presenter.

'Do You Know Your Place?' will explore various locations across the UK, including Belfast and Wrexham, where celebrity contestants will engage in challenges to distinguish between factual information and misinformation. The show promises to engage audiences with the presence of various well-known celebrity guests, like EastEnders' Nitin Ganatra and television personalities including Anneka Rice and Owain Wyn Evans.

The format of the show includes a combination of on-location tours led by Paul's presentations and in-studio games orchestrated by Vernon. This unique blend aims to captivate viewers by presenting a mix of entertainment through celebrity appearances and trivia, tapping into the current popularity of quiz-based television formats.
