The One Show was a television show on BBC One, broadcast on weekdays at 6.55pm between August 14 and September 8, 2006. The programme was initially commissioned for four weeks in this slot and was billed as a topical magazine show hosted by Adrian Chiles and Nadia Sawalha, with reports supplied by Kate Humble, Anna Adams, Dan Snow, Martin Lewis and Matt Baker. Adrian also wrote a behind the scenes diary which was published on the show's website.
It has been reported that the show will return in 2007, replacing Real Story, [1] and 37 Year Old Holiday [2]

[edit] Filming
The show was filmed in The Mailbox complex in Birmingham, and was produced by BBC Birmingham, with production input from various BBC regions. The initial four week run was for test purposes, to see whether the show was successful in attracting audiences, and if deemed to have done so, will be recommissioned.
[edit] Featured stories
During the programme's run, several experts, as well as presenters from other BBC programmes presented certain reports and ran experiments. Among these included Kate Humble travelling around the United Kingdom in search of specific wildlife each day; Martin Lewis providing tips for saving money, as well as Carol Thatcher attempting to survive for a week on £8.45 a day - the amount the Prudential estimated many state pensioners were living on after tax deductions.
[edit] Photo competition
Throughout the initial four week run, a wildlife photo competition was held, designed to find the best photograph captured by a viewer. The winner, Annie Kerridge, was announced on September 7, 2006 and she was interviewed live on the programme. Entries are available to view on the BBC's interactive services.
To aid with sending entries, a special BBC group was set up on photographic sharing website Flickr, where viewers with accounts could upload them [1].
