I still can’t quite believe it but look who is opening series 5 of The Next Chapter. I’m not sure Eamonn Holmes needs much of an introduction, he’s one of our most loved household names. He’s presented pretty much everything from of course GMTV, This Morning, Sunrise, The National Lottery, Songs of Praise, Radio 5 Live the list continues, and now he’s just started his own Next Chapter presenting GB News.

Eamonn speaks openly and honestly about what life has really been like being one of our most well-known television stars, how his life growing up through the Troubles in Northern Ireland helped him become the journalist he is, and how he nearly missed out on telly life altogether.

I first met Eamonn during my own first chapter nearly twenty-five years ago when I was a runner at GMTV. All I wanted to do then was to be a television journalist, and Eamonn was my absolute hero. I remember the day I met him and I thought if I ever do become that journalist it would be my dream to interview him. It’s taken nearly a quarter of a century but I really hope you’ll agree it was worth the wait.
