GB News has announced that it will broadcast a live town-hall event with former Prime Minister Liz Truss next month.
Truss holds the unwelcome record of being the UK's shortest-tenured PM in history, lasting just 49 days in office last autumn before being forced to resign.
Last month it was claimed that Truss was being courted by GB News to present her own show, and now it has been confirmed that she will appear on the channel in the form of a Q&A hosted by Dan Wootton.
The special programme will be held in Leigh in Wigan - a constituency held by Truss's Conservative party since the 2019 election.
"It's great to be returning to Leigh with Dan Wootton and GB News. I want to listen to the ideas and the issues people feel passionately about," she said.
"Getting out of Westminster and hearing the practical solutions to the big issues we face as a country is vital if we want to get Britain growing again."
Wootton added: "The political establishment and woke blob might have thought they'd silenced her, but Liz Truss was elected overwhelmingly by grassroots Conservatives as party leader and still has much to offer the country.
"I can't wait to hit the road with our former PM and allow GB News viewers the opportunity to quiz her about an extraordinary year while looking ahead too."
The event will air on GB News live on Thursday, June 15 from 9pm to 11pm.
