Mel Giedroyc will front a new wood-based competition for Channel 4.

Channel 4 have announced a new wood-based reality series, Good With Wood, to be hosted by Mel Giedroyc.

The former Great British Bake Off presenter will preside over a contest in which "the UK's most talented woodworkers" will create large and imaginative wooden structures.

"In the words of Ian Faith, the manager of Spinal Tap, '... in the topsy-turvy world of heavy rock, having a good solid piece of wood in your hand is often useful'," said Giedroyc.

"I would add to that by saying that in the topsy-turvy world of 2020 in general, having a good solid piece of wood in your hand is pretty much essential. So, if you go down to the woods today, you're in for a big surprise.

"Good With Wood is going to be something we can all lean on. I can't wait to make like Edward Woodward and get WOODSWARD."

The six-part series, which will be filmed in a woodland setting, does not yet have a confirmed air date.
