Nine has revealed that comedians Hamish & Andy’s new show for the network will feature their adventures in America.

The pair – Hamish Blake and Andy Lee – ended their daily Today Network drivetime show at the end of last year but have continued to do a weekly show.

The new TV series will be called Hamish & Andy’s Gap Year. It will go to air in the second half of the year and be based in New York.

Blake said: “The whole point of this gap year is to see where the journey will take us, who we might meet, and what might happen.”
