I break betting odds news as it happens, so you’re never left behind when the market moves or a top offer lands.

  • Holly Willoughby currently has no active TV shows for the first time in over 20 years.
  • A Record Breakers reboot (2/1) led by her husband Dan Baldwin is tipped as the most likely next role.
  • A Blind Date comeback (3/1) is also in the frame, with lifestyle or BBC ventures also speculated.

Holly Willoughby ‘Showless’ for the First Time in 20 Years - What’s Next?

Television presenter Holly Willoughby faces an unfamiliar career moment with no shows currently scheduled following the cancellation of Netflix’s Bear Hunt, a series she was set to co-host before the platform reportedly pulled the plug.

The 43-year-old has also stepped away from This Morning, while Dancing on Ice has been axed, and she has also stepped down from ITV gameshow You Bet! this year. 

It leaves Willoughby at a crossroads, but showbiz insiders suggest her next move might already be in the works and so do the betting odds.

According to The Sun a reboot of Record Breakers is currently being developed, with Willoughby’s husband Dan Baldwin producing the format. 

That insider link makes it the most likely next move and a natural fit for Willoughby’s family-friendly style.

Also gaining traction is the reboot of Cilla Black’s Blind Date, which could appeal to ITV as a high-profile format comeback. 

Willoughby’s mainstream popularity and presenting polish would make her a compelling successor to Cilla, currently rated at 3/1.

Meanwhile, a BBC primetime move isn’t out of the question, especially with her experience and audience appeal. 

She could also return to ITV in a new daytime format, though no confirmed projects are linked to her name yet.
