Well I didn't think we'd be seeing this!
Thought the Goggleboxers summed it up pretty well and it would be a one series only show.

Actual questions of some import?
A talk show host should do a few things: establish rapport with the guest, get the audience interested, promote the guest and their product and hopefully provide some insight into them along the way.
I don't care what celebs have other celebs in their phone book. I don't care who they both know or how they both met them.
The Nigella situation was a perfect storm that turned into a storm in a teacup when McIntyre could have really nailed it on and established himself as a decent talk show host.
If he wants to be funny, he has his stand up. If he wants to have a joke with a celebrity he is friendly with, he can invite them to Live At The Apollo or McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow for a bit of banter or a skit.
If he wants to try his hand at being a talk show host interviewing other celebrities, asking questions of interest would be a start. "You look marvellous. Do you hear that all the time?" and asking the same bloody questions Allan Carr asked of the same bloody person on a program based on the exact same format... might as well have caught a Chatty Man rerun.
Not a fan then?
You asked what was expected. You got a response of some detail. So, extrapolate that information for your own purposes, Mr. White, you're meant to be the science guy.
Me too, just please stop the shouting.
