But on The One Show tonight, Kate revealed why her new series underwent a name change.

She said: "It was originally, I think, going to be called Kate Garraway's body uncovered.

"It isn't, I just want to reassure you, please don't say that because no one is going to put that on BBC Two at 8pm.

"It would be like watching Doctor Who through your fingers.

"My body is not uncovered in any way, but lots of other peoples are and they're great examples of very serious things but also those niggling things that really impact on your life."

At the end of The One Show, Alex Jones said: "Your body uncovered with Kate Garraway starts tonight at 8pm."

Kate added: "With Kate Garraway as opposed to Kate Garraway's body uncovered."

Alex joked: "That's a whole different series that I'd love to see."
