The Emily Atack Show: Meet the cast of the ITV comedy sketch show Wed 4 November 2020 16:13 Kate Fowler

As The Emily Atack Show first comes to our screens tonight, you might recognise some of the ensemble cast from elsewhere.

The show starts tonight, November 4th at 10pm on ITV2. There are six 50 minute episodes in the first series, and each episode is aptly named after a different topic – this week is Dating.

What is the show about?

The Emily Atack show is Emily’s first dive into having her own show, after being host of Celebrity Juice. The show is a sketch-style and is a modern Bridget Jones take on modern dating and life, including one night stands, dating, nudes and being single.
