Kate Garraway has announced that she is getting stuck into a new project.
The Good Morning Britain star, 57, is set to host a new podcast and YouTube series called DXB Unheard, which promises to “uncover the hidden gems, personal triumphs, and extraordinary experiences in the cosmopolitan city of Dubai”
Each of the eight episodes, which will be released weekly, promise to feature “intimate interviews with remarkable individuals, where audiences can hear from Emiratis and Dubai residents who have left an indelible mark on the city”.
The veteran broadcaster will explore the remarkable transformation of the city from a small fishing village in the Arabian Gulf to a leading global hub of innovation. These conversations explore Dubai’s rich history and development, showcasing its evolution into a modern metropolis.
This unique eight-episode series meets Dubai’s leading women and men to reveal the city today, from its global humanitarian and sustainability efforts to its hosting of iconic international sporting events.
The episode will feature thought-provoking guests including Bakhita al-Muhairi, the first Emirati female commercial pilot, British-born Isobel Abulhoul OBE, founder, advisor and trustee, Emirates Literature Foundation, Mathew Tait, former England Rugby player and now Emirates Dubai 7s lead, and H.E. Salem Humaid Al Marri, Director General of the Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre.

The first episode titled The Melting Pot is out now via YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music and all other major audio platforms, and explores the diverse range of people who call Dubai home.
Speaking about her latest endeavour, Garraway said: “In this series I get to introduce you to people who want to open your eyes and your mind to another Dubai, the one that is unheard, and explore what this city and its residents are all about. It is a place where east meets west, where women can and do lead the way, where science is saving resources and selflessness is saving lives.
“I’ve been to Dubai a few times, but it was through these conversations in people’s homes, restaurants, offices, and places of cultural significance that I’ve really been able to understand a different side of Dubai. It’s so special to understand more how the people of Dubai - both locally raised and expats – live and work together.
“Dubai is a tapestry of stories woven together. DXB Unheard is our chance to unravel those threads and celebrate the extraordinary lives that intersect, uncovering stories that were previously unknown or unrecognised as part of Dubai's rich narrative.”
