  • Ep 6: AJ Odudu
    Jan 11 2021
    This week Alison is joined by Don’t Rock The Boat presenter and The Voice Digital Host - it’s AJ Odudu!

    They catch up on all the backstage goss from both shows - from Craig Charles’ wobbly time at sea to the best advice given to her from her Telly BFF Emma Willis.

    AJ tells Alison all about her upbringing as one of eight kids, and they talk about the ‘posh room’ at home - anyone else only allowed to watch TV in there on special occasions?!

    And they agree to bring back and host some of their very favourite TV gameshows from the past…. as long as there’s a male model involved! (*hint hint telly bosses!*)

    And that’s all for the first series of My Life in TV! Thanks for joining us, and we’ll see you next time!

  • Ep 5: Mo Gilligan
    Jan 4 2021
    Happy New Year everyone!

    Alison is back with a bang for 2021, and is welcoming the brand new panelist on The Masked Singer - Mo Gilligan - to share his life in TV!

    They talk all about highs and lows: from Mo’s new role on everyone’s favourite music/detective/fancy dress prime time show, to the time a tech malfunction at a gig left him dying on stage, leaving to a slow clap and threatening to quit comedy….!

    Plus Mo tells Alison why the theme tune to Heartbeat used to make his heart sink.

    And as a little bonus, Alison and Mo play their very own (VERY budget) version of Goldenballs… but will they steal or will they split?!

    Don’t forget, My Life in TV will be back for another episode next week, so stay subscribed and following - and we’ll see you next week!

  • Bonus Ep: It's Christmas!
    Dec 21 2020
    MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

    Alison is playing Santa this week - she’s got a gift for you in the form of a very special Christmas mini episode of My Life in TV!

    You’ll hear from Emily Atack, Olivia Attwood, Joel Dommett, Scarlett Moffatt, Mo Gilligan and AJ Odudu who tell Alison about their fave things to watch, who they like to spend the day with, and what their festive traditions are!

    Who cries at Polar Express? Whose family loves a Christmas argument? Who has a Christmas film watching schedule? And who has to wait until 7pm to open their Christmas presents?

    And if you’re like some of our guests and want to avoid a Christmas argument, there’s plenty to watch to unite the family (or for you to run away to watch in another room by yourself!) on ITV Hub and Britbox over the festive break!

    Happy Christmas! My Life in TV will be back in the New Year with some brand new episodes for 2021, so we’ll see you then!

  • Ep 4: Scarlett Moffatt
    Dec 14 2020
    This week, Alison is catching up with host of ITV2’s brand new cookery-dating show, it’s Scarlett Moffatt!

    The quickfire round IS ACTUALLY quick this week - and Scarlett gives us the goss on who she fancied as a kid, and why peanut butter sandwiches and Norman Wisdom will always have a special place in her heart!

    She tells Alison about how she got her family onto Gogglebox because she was helping out a friend who was working as a researcher (the TV kind, not the scientific kind!), and about the diary entries she wrote as a kid wishing she was Ant and Dec’s sidekick! Aww!

    Scarlett and Alison talk frankly about dealing with trolls and bullies, why you’ll rarely catch Scarlett crying at the TV, and why being naked on telly can get in the bin!

    And you’ll also hear why Alison should NEVER be allowed near Ant and Dec…!

    Don’t forget, a new episode of My Life In TV will drop every Monday, and we’re back next week with a special festive episode! See you there!

  • Ep 3: Joel Dommett
    Dec 7 2020
    Alison is joined by host of ITV’s The Masked Singer and ITV2’s Hey Tracey - it’s Joel Dommett!

    Obviously Alison asks all about The Masked Singer - but does Joel know who’s behind the mask?!

    He spills the beans on the time he auditioned for Extra Camp and *didn’t* get the job, and the time he was inspired by Love Actually and moved to America looking for love…. (lol)

    Oh, and you won’t want to miss the part where Alison talks about spitting in Martin Scorsese’s face on the red carpet. Oh wait, is it, Martin Scorsese or Michael Scorsese?!

    Don’t forget, a new episode of My Life In TV will drop every Monday, so get subscribed for more TV faves next week!

    She also talks about her love for Ab Fab, the kids’ film fiancé Brad Dack cries at (sorry Brad!), and why she’d love to make a return to Love Island.

    And while she’s not been sliding into any DMs this week, Alison confesses who her first TV crush was…!

    Emily gives us the inside scoop on working with the Celeb Juice team, and tells us all about her dream job in telly - but don’t go nicking her ideas!

    She dishes out stories of some very awks audition moments, accidental snogs and life changing moments in the Jungle.

    Oh, and Alison spills the tea whose DMs she’s been sliding into… (hint - it’s one of 2020’s BIGGEST TV heartthrobs).
