Launching on 27 April at 7pm, The Cathy Newman Show promises sharp interviews, exclusive investigations, and dynamic debates directly from Sky News’ Westminster studio.
A Fresh Voice in Political Journalism
Broadcast Monday through Thursday on Sky News and YouTube, the show aims to cut through the clamor of today’s news cycle, delivering clarity and depth on the issues that truly matter.

“With the local elections approaching, it’s the perfect moment to launch this show,” Newman said. “I’m excited to invite guests onto the iconic orange velvet sofa for in-depth interviews, exclusive revelations, and meaningful conversations that help unpack the complexities of our world. Join me from next week for a friendly but forensic chat.”
Extending the Experience: Investigations, Documentaries, and Podcasts
Beyond the nightly broadcast, The Cathy Newman Show will feature longer-form investigations and documentaries that deepen the conversation. A new podcast series is also slated to debut this autumn, expanding the reach and impact of Newman’s distinctive journalism.
