BBC Three - The King is Dead, The President of the USA

Who out of James Corden, Sarah Beeny and Peaches Geldof could be the next US president?

Comedy panel show in which James Corden, Sarah Beeny and Peaches Geldof battle to become the leader of the free world after the US president is killed off.

Could James Corden be the next president of the USA? Would Caprice make a good chief of police? Would Louis Walsh make a good king? Almost certainly not. 

A public figure is hypothetically bumped off and a comic interview panel scours the celebrity pool for a top-notch replacement in this comedy panel show. This is not a typical HR department - the last Father Christmas probably didn't get the job based on the ability to smash up a signed picture of the Loose Women with a ski, and the former chief of police almost certainly avoided having his or her feet licked by an alsatian - and this isn't a typical interview panel. Simon Bird, Nick Mohammed and Katy Wix guide the process each time.

Simon, Nick and Katy interview James Corden, Sarah Beeny and Peaches Geldof, who want to be the new leader of the free world after the President of the USA is killed.

A multi-platform service for 16-34s, featuring comedy, entertainment and factual content.
