Davina McCall is set to host a brand new makeover show with a twist - it will show the dramatic real-world transformations in a 'time travel' style format.
The six-part series, called This Time Next Year, will see McCall meet people from across the UK who want to make a big change in their life, from losing half their body weight, to finding the love of their life or becoming a parent.
Once the featured person has revealed what their pledge is to McCall, they will leave the studio to begin their challenge - and reappear 'moments' later transformed and ready to reveal to McCall and the viewers how they achieved their big change.
In reality, a year has passed since they first appeared on the show and the 'time travel' twist was thought up in order to break the habit of 'traditional' makeover shows.
