UKTV's entertainment channel Dave has announced a street-based game show Don't Say It, Bring It, based on an original Spanish format from Phileas Productions.

Hosted by comedian Jason Byrne the show will be produced by Stellify Media and will be filmed in various areas of the UK including Belfast, Bristol, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newcastle, Western-super-Mare and Whitby.

Ordered by UKTV's director of commissioning Richard Watsham and Dave general manager Steve North, the series has been commissioned by Helen Nightingale. Kieran Doherty, Matthew Worthy and Chris Jones are the executive producers of the format.

“This is a new genre for origination on Dave and part of our ongoing strategy of broadening commissioning opportunities into different areas of the schedule,” said Watsham. “There are increasing opportunities for producers beyond the core comedy entertainment shows that Dave has been so successful in originating.”

“Dave viewers have a real appetite for fresh and funny formats and I think they will love this energetic, entertaining game show. We are so happy to have Jason host his first show with us,” added North.
