Yes, ITV have revealed that The Martin Lewis Money Show will be returning for another series this October.
Joining Martin Lewis to present the show will be Jeanette Kwakye, who previously hosted the most recent series of the show with Lewis.
Prior to 2023, Lewis had been joined by several other TV stars, including Saira Khan, Lorraine’s Ranvir Singh and most recently, Angellica Bell.
Regular segments including News You Can Use and Martin’s Big Briefing are expected to return, as will the show’s live studio audience participation.
The Martin Lewis Money Show will air on ITV1 and ITVX in October 2024.
Bell presented The Martin Lewis Money Show alongside Lewis from November 2017 to March 2023. However, The Sun reports her exit from the show ahead of the series’ 13th season was a shock to her and many of the show’s staff.
“Angellica has been an integral part of the show since 2017 so for her to be bumped off air with no warning is crazy,” a source was reported as having said to the newspaper at the time. “Everyone is stunned by the move – no one saw it coming.
“Staff have naturally been talking and find the whole thing really awkward and unfair, but Martin is trying to keep out of it as it wasn’t up to him,” the source continued.
Speaking about welcoming former Olympic athlete Jeanette Kwakye into the team during an appearance on The Chris Evans Breakfast Show this January, Lewis shared: “When I discussed her training patterns with her I realised that my life is, sadly not physically, a bit like being an athlete. I’m constantly in training to keep the knowledge up so that I can answer the questions without notice of what the questions are.”
The Martin Lewis Money Show will return to ITV1 and ITVX in October.
