Emily Atack lands ITV2 comedy sketch show

Emily Atack announces that ITV2 have commissioned her to write and star in a new comedy sketch series.

Emily Atack has announced that she has landed her own comedy sketch series on ITV2.

The 30-year-old actress - runner-up on the 2018 edition of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! - has landed a six-part commission for the show, aptly called The Emily Atack Show.

The series will feature her impressions of the likes of Holly Willoughby and Gemma Collins, while each episode will be themed around topics such as dating, going out, family, friends, image and 'adulting'.

"Here we go...The Emily Atack show is coming to ITV2!" she wrote on Twitter. "I have written the most ridiculously outrageous sketch show for you all!

"This is all I've ever wanted. I wish I could tell 16 year old crying in the toilets, boy mad Emily this would come one day."

Atack has also been linked with taking over one of the two vacant team captain spots on ITV2's long-running comedy panel show Celebrity Juice.
