A NEW panel show has been launched by comedian Jim Davidson OBE and will be filmed in front of live audiences in Wimborne.
Left, Right & Centre, a Question Time-style panel show is set to be filmed at the Tivoli Theatre.
Audience members will be given the chance to ask questions of the panel, which will be made up of comedians and entertainers with views from across the political spectrum.
Davidson himself will perform a short stand-up routine as a warm-up for each show - and is likely to add his own opinions into the debate as the panel discusses whatever hot topics the audience raises.

Comedian and impressionist Danny Posthill, a Britain’s Got Talent finalist, has a seat confirmed on the ‘right’ of the panel, along with acclaimed up-and-coming stand-up star Samantha Day for the ‘left’, as well as other star guests.
The panel will be moderated by the UK’s premier compere and MC, Miles Crawford.
Davidson said: “Everyone is getting bored of having to be PC all the time or everything being ‘woke’ so we thought we’d create a panel show where we can debate and talk about the craziness of the world and say it exactly how it really is.
“The audience will be getting involved, just as they do on Question Time, to ask the questions they want answering or raise the biggest issues of the day.
“The major difference is that our panel won’t get cancelled from Ustreme for having an opinion - and we’ll have a bloody good laugh debating what’s what.
“No snowflakes allowed in the audience though. We need people who can laugh at jokes like grown-ups used to do and not get offended because someone has a different opinion. It’ll be like the good old days.”
Shows will be filmed at 2.30pm and 7.30pm on April 25, May 3 and May 4.
