host has announced one major change to the BBC programme - and the format shake-up is set to be implemented this week. The weekly politics show hosted the veteran broadcaster - - sees politicians from various parties up and down the country gather at the studios. There they will answer a series of questions from the live studio audience about the biggest issues threatening the UK each week.

But this week, the show is implementing a format shake-up where politics will be taken out of discussion. Last week (June 12), the 61-year-old presenter warned viewers at the end of the show that she will be hosting a special episode of the show devoted entirely to issues with growing up in the 21st century.

She teased viewers: "Question Time is doing something a bit different this week. We are devoting a whole programme to the issues with growing up in the 21st century. [This includes] Social media, mental health, getting a job, getting a house."

The presenter - - who went on to reveal some of the big names they have got lined up to appear on the show so far, including a Netflix star and a huge British YouTuber.

Fiona went on: "We've got Jack Thorne who wrote that massive hit . We've got Katherine Birbalsingh, renowned as Britain's strictest head mistress.

"We've also got someone who you might not have heard of if you're over 40, but if you're Gen Z then you definitely will have done. TommyInnit (whose real name is Tommy Simmons), he's a massive YouTuber, gamer and now online comedian who has millions upon millions of followers."

The veteran broadcaster admitted that the 21-year-old internet personality isn't "the kind of person we usually have on Question Time" but promised fans that he will have "lots of very interesting things to say".

Currently, only three members of the star-studded panel have been announced but further big names are expected to be revealed later this week. It didn't take long before fans flooded to X - formerly known as Twitter to share their thoughts on the format shake-up online.

One user predicted who else could be joining the show this week, suggesting: "Presumably Richard Tice will be returning? Or perhaps Zia Yusuf, or possibly even the great man himself, Mr Farage?"

Elsewhere, another fan shared their biggest suggestions for topics on the programme, explaining: "The problems have always been: affordable housing, cost of education, wages, austerity/ public service cuts, utility costs, and the biggest... Brexit."

Meanwhile, a third fumed: "'Join us for a special programme on the challenges of growing up in the 21st Century'. Really? There isn't a more pressing issue taking place right now you should talk about?"

Question Time airs on Thursdays from 10.40pm on BBC One or catch up on BBC iPlayer.
