The Big Show

The Big Show is a lifestyle and entertainment programme hosted by Robin Elliott, with Pauline Carville joining as co‑host during the pandemic “At Home” series. Episodes ran from late 2020 through November 2021.

The format mixes celebrity interviews, music performances and practical segments. Music guests include Brian Kennedy, Peter Cunnah, A.N.J.A., Conal Montgomery, Derek Ryan, Brendan Quinn and Nathan Carter. TV personalities feature Carol Smillie, Anna Richardson, Chris Bavin and Sally Lindsay. Lifestyle topics cover dating advice, financial planning, behaviour psychology, fitness (Mr Motivator), baby showers, holiday booking and home security. Special episodes included festival coverage, the Belfast Film Festival, the NI Music Prize and the Grand Opera House reopening.

Pandemic-era programmes shifted to remote recording, featuring lockdown‑themed content like Derek Ryan’s Christmas album plans and Brendan Quinn‘s lockdown album. Pre‑pandemic segments ventured on location, such as the Outhaus NI store opening in Portadown with Jake Quickenden and Jodie Kidd.
