“I’m filming a new Channel 5 series, which is coming up soon, which is going to be very, very exciting. Much bigger, much better than we’ve ever done. So, that’s a new series starting in February – starting filming in February,” she revealed to hosts Josie Gibson and Dermot O’Leary.
When Josie asked if the show would feature her on cruises again, Jane playfully hinted, “We could be, could be,” before joyfully confirming, “Yes, yes, I’m going to be on the sea again! So that’s very exciting.”
