Holly Willoughby teams up with Freddie Flintoff for new ITV show The Real Games in 2021

HOLLY Willoughby has teamed up with Freddie Flintoff for new ITV show The Real Games, which will hit our screens next year.

The pair will be joined by former football pro Alex Scott as a trackside reporter, with Chris Kamara taking on the role of commentator.



Holly has landed an exciting new presenting gig

Holly, 39, gushed that she couldn’t be more excited to sign up to host the show, which is a far cry from her usual presenting duties alongside Phillip Schofield for This Morning.

The Real Games will see celebrities go head to head in a series of sporting challenges, with a dozen famous faces pulled out of their comfort zones to be trained and eventually compete in the hope of winning the entire thing.

It will air over a one week period, with six male and six female celebs battling it out in the athletics arena, swimming pool, and gymnasium.

Holly said: “I’m really excited to be presenting The Real Games with Freddie and the rest of the team.

“I can’t wait to watch our celebrity competitors go head-to-head.”

Freddie added: “This is going to be a brilliant week of TV. Our celeb competitors will need to be at the top of their game to be in with a chance of topping the medals table.”

The stars will take on everything from doubles diving to the 100-meter sprint, with each episode including their preparation for the challenges as well as live coverage of the events.

The winner will be crowned in an exhilirating final show as fans excitedly get to watch the medals table take shape with each instalment.

ITV’s Commissioning Editor Nicola Lloyd said of the series: “Obviously 2021 is going be a big year for sport events but for entertainment in a sporting setting, look no further than the real games.

“With a host of famous faces taking part we’re expecting big names, huge events and gold -medal winning egos.

“We’re delighted to have Holly along with Freddie guiding us through, joined by Alex and Chris and we’ll be revealing more about the competitors in the lead up to the show. We can’t wait for the fun and games to begin.”
