Carol McGiffin and Sherrie Hewson began their stints as regular panellists at the start of the fourth series, whilst Coleen Nolan had a brief stint in the second series before returning regularly from the sixth series.

Series 11–17

From 2007 to 2009, the presenter job was mainly shared by McLean and Jackie Brambles. Following Jackie Brambles departure in August 2009,[5] Kate Thornton took over from her during the following month and continued to present the show in rotation with Andrea McLean until August 2011. Jane McDonald also took a 16-month hiatus to focus of her music, returning in 2012. On 14 December Jane McDonald announced her return live on air with a surprise phone call. Following a relaunch in September 2011, the role of presenter was shared between McLean and Carol Vorderman, replacing Kate Thornton, coinciding with the departures of Coleen Nolan, Zoë Tyler and Lynda Bellingham. Jane McDonald returned on 16 January 2012. Linda Robson was introduced as a regular panellist in 2013, after appearing several times previous as a guest stand in.

Loose Books

From March 2015 Loose Books was launched. Similar to Richard and Judy's Book Club. The idea is that a panellist picks a book which the audience and the other panellists read. The first book was chosen by Coleen Nolan called 'The Girl On The Train' by Paula Hawkins which later went to number 1. As of the new year 2016, Loose Books is no longer a feature on the show.
