This Time Next Year

Davina McCall gives members of the public a twelve‑month programme designed to help them improve various aspects of their lives, offering guidance and support throughout the year. One participant is a woman determined to lose half her body weight so she can commence fertility treatment.

Davina McCall fronts a new television series that hands ordinary people a twelve‑month window to better their lives. The format centres on the idea that, with the right support and a clear deadline, participants can tackle personal goals that have previously seemed out of reach. McCall acts as both guide and motivator, setting the tone for a year‑long journey of change. The show follows several members of the public as they embark on their individual challenges, one of whom is a woman determined to shed half of her current body weight. Her ultimate aim is to become eligible for fertility treatment, and the programme documents her attempts to meet that ambitious target within the allotted year. Her story illustrates how the broader premise of the series can intersect with deeply personal health and family aspirations. Throughout the series, each participant receives a structured timeframe—exactly twelve months—to make measurable progress. By framing the improvement period as a finite, manageable span, the series seeks to demonstrate that significant transformation is possible when people are given clear objectives and consistent encouragement. The focus remains on real‑world change, with McCall’s involvement providing continuity and a sense of accountability for everyone involved.
