Jon Culshaw lands new BBC1 series

Dead Ringers star Jon Culshaw is to star in a new primetime BBC One show.

Eight half-hour episodes of The New Impressions Show will be made, with Bad Girls actress Debra Stephenson co-starring.

As the provisional title suggests, the show – which has yet to be given a transmission slot – will also feature a cast of new impressionists.

The BBC said those being mimicked would include EastEnders stars, Simon Cowell, The One Show, The Apprentice, Wayne Rooney, Boris Johnson and Gordon Ramsay.
