Ben Shephard

from Russell Howard’s Five Brilliant Things · host Avalon Television

One of the most popular faces from British TV is here; from This Morning, from Tipping Point and so much more it’s Ben Shephard!  What comes through in this ebullient show is Ben’s love for life and thirst for experiences (and thirst for drinks with bubbles in them).  Ben takes us on a trip on the back of a motorbike through the London traffic, lifts the lid on how you go about doing a Men’s Health cover-shoot and forces Russell to try on a cardigan.  And as we spoke about on the show, Ben (alongside Joel Dommett) are on a journey launching their new skincare brand. You can follow their progress by listening to their podcast ‘The Business Men’.  You can take the skincare questionnaire by clicking here. 🎭 Also keep an eye out for Ben’s live show with Kammy - they are touring UK venues doing a few select shows over 2026.
