Jeremy Clarkson Returns to Host New Millionaire Episodes
Television presenter Jeremy Clarkson will return to host new episodes of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" and its spinoff "Millionaire Hot Seat" following his recovery from prostate cancer. ITV announced the commission of 15 new episodes of the flagship quiz show and 20 more of the spinoff on Monday, June 29, 2026.
Clarkson, 66, publicly revealed his diagnosis of an aggressive but early-stage form of prostate cancer in the final episodes of the fifth season of his reality series "Clarkson's Farm," which aired in June.
