Genre: News & Current Affairs

BBC World News Inside Sport is a sports news programme bringing in-depth interviews and features from a wide range of sports, and a bit of fun.

Host Gabby Logan shares her hopes for what the show can do for sport and what she can do for the show. Her comments below sum up the essence of the show:

“BBC World News Inside Sport is new, so it's not emulating anything. Our aim is to have a good balance of original journalism, features that other areas of television don't have the inclination to do, and interviews that have more depth about the individual. They have something to say and we can come from a slightly different angle at them, not just stick them in front of a sponsor's board for two minutes.

Inside Sport is good film-making: the craftsmanship, the great heritage of BBC film-makers, as well as debate in the studio with some interesting pundits. I want to do something that involves all sports. I came to the BBC to do things outside of football, but this is great because I get to do everything. If there are big stories in rugby and football we're not going to ignore them, but we will be able to dip into other sports, be it sailing or whatever.

This programme is more about feeling the sportsperson's day - a few shades of Louis Theroux perhaps - and living a little bit of their lives with them, inside their sport, inside their world.

You get those insights that you wouldn't get in that 'chair-opposite-chair' interview set-up”

New series starts 21st Feb
