A one-off episode of Loose Women will air later this month, featuring Janet Street-Porter and Gloria Hunniford, as the ITV show marks a huge milestone

ITV is set to celebrate a milestone with a special edition of Loose Women airing in late January, commemorating the network’s 70th year since its inception in 1955.

The festivities will include a unique episode of Loose Women scheduled for Tuesday, 28 January, aptly named This is 70+. Regulars Janet Street-Porter and Gloria Hunniford will be joined by Prue Leith and Lesley Joseph on the show.

These four women, all aged in their 70s and 80s, will tackle a range of subjects on the daytime programme, from style and social circles in your seventies to the important life insights they’ve each gained over time, reports the Liverpool Echo.

In a teaser for the upcoming episode, Janet proclaims: “Join us as we say happy 70th birthday ITV! And meet Loose Women’s panel of ‘power-agers’.”

Prue Leith, who will be gracing the Loose Women panel for the first time, shares: “Our 70 plus squad is here… Sharing some life lessons we’ve picked up along the way.”

Lesley chimes in with: “I feel so much freer now I’m older” before playfully quipping: “We’ll reveal our secrets to ageing dis-gracefully!”
