Sky are to bring back a Sunday media review show.

Mail Sport revealed that the broadcaster was examining a return for a Sunday Supplement style programme, after the popular show was axed following a 20-year run in 2020.

And it is understood that they have now decided to do so – and that the new arrival will be in place for the new season.

Sky bosses are remaining tight-lipped on what the show will be called, but it will not resurrect the previous name. 

An announcement is expected in the coming weeks.

The programme is set to follow a similar format to the original, and would centre around a review of the weekend’s action along with a dissection of the major stories from industry insiders.

Supplement was a staple on the broadcaster after hitting screens for the first time under the name of Hold The Back Page in 1999. 

Jimmy Hill was the original presenter, and was usually joined by three national newspaper journalists.

In 2020, Jacqui Oatley became the show’s first female presenter. 

However, later that year it was canned, with Sky blaming a congested upcoming season thanks to the knock-on effect of the coronavirus pandemic.
