This show first aired on 3 September 2018 and features celebrity panelists who debate the latest news, views and the headlines.

Jeremy Vine has hosted the show on Channel 5[12] since it began on 3 September 2018 (2018-09-03), with his main stand-in Claudia-Liza Vanderpuije filling in for him when on holiday or ill. A main feature returning from the former programme The Wright Stuff is that there is a male or female co-host who sits in the audience area.

This role is currently performed by Storm Huntley,[14] who previously worked on The Wright Stuff and was carried over to Jeremy Vine.

On 17 January 2022, it was announced that Vine's morning show slot would be extended by an hour[16] from 19 January 2022 by dropping the scheduled repeat[17][18] of Shoplifters & Scammers: At War with the Law at 12:15 pm[19] and moving Nightmare Tenants, Slum Landlords by an hour.

[27] Conran was a previous stand-in host for Vine and Huntley and has also presented numerous series like Phone Scams: Don't Get Caught Out[28][29] and Secrets of Fast Food Giants for the channel.

[30][31][32] From Monday 26 June 2023, the Alexis Conran programme became an hour long part of ITN's morning current affairs block on Channel 5, with the show running from 12:40 pm and the extra time being given over to Storm Huntley.
