ITV has announced a host of new commissions for its weekend morning line-up, with Gary Barlow and Dermot O’Leary among the presenters set to front shows as part of the revamped schedule.
The Take That icon will return for a third instalment of Gary Barlow’s Wine Tour series later this year, with Gary travelling to New Zealand alongside singer, presenter and actor Jason Manford.
This Morning star O’Leary will also be back with a second season of Dermot’s Taste of Ireland, which is set to kick off this weekend.
The new series will see the presenter traverse two of the island of Ireland’s most iconic coastal touring routes – the Causeway Coastal Route and Wild Atlantic Way.
Ainsley Harriott will also be back on our screens in a third series of Ainsley’s Fantastic Flavours later this year, in which he’ll be joined by a host of special guests and familiar faces in the kitchen to celebrate global cuisines.
Other new commissions include a second season of Fern Britton: Inside The Vet’s, in which Fern Britton will once again go behind the scenes of family-run practice The Grove Vets “to meet the dedicated veterinarians and share the emotional stories of the devoted owners of the hundreds of pets being treated there every week”.
Viewers can also look forward to a brand new series Clodagh: Cooking At Home, which will invite viewers into the chef’s idyllic home on her farm Broadspear.
The show will see Clodagh McKenna “share the good times and slices of life at home, from parties to casual weekends, with a collection of simple and delicious recipes”.
The new line-up also includes Josie’s Taste of the Westcountry, which began airing on ITV1 on Sunday 19 April.
The show sees proud Bristolian Josie Gibson take viewers on a tour of her beloved West Country and is described as a “journey of celebration; discovering dinner delights, freshly caught lunches, the best of passionate artisan makers and growers as well as a few hidden gems to surprise us all…”
Assistant Commissioner, ITV Entertainment and Daytime, Leanne Clarke, said in a statement: “We can all wake up to something special – brilliant presenters, delicious inspiration and expertise, a morning lineup that’s a true weekend treat.”
Dermot’s Taste of Ireland season 2 will air on ITV1 and ITVX at 12pm on Friday 2 May, 2026.
Gary Barlow’s Food and Wine Tour: New Zealand will air on ITV1 and ITVX later in 2026.
