Isabel Oakeshott leaves GB News after seven months to become International Editor at new channel TalkTV.

Political journalist Isabel Oakeshott has left her role at GB News in order to join News UK's new station TalkTV.

The 47-year-old - former political editor at The Sunday Times - had presented a one-hour Friday show on GB News from last September and also reported from the ground on the Ukraine conflict last month.

In her new role at TalkTV, Oakeshott will serve as the channel's International Editor and will also be a regular commentator and panellist on shows from Piers Morgan, Sharon Osbourne and Tom Newton Dunn.

"I'm delighted to be returning to News UK, which is both a bastion of free speech and home to a wealth of world-class journalistic talent," she said.

"I'm excited to be joining Tom's show as a regular commentator, as it seeks to redefine broadcast news and current affairs for contemporary audiences.

"And in my new role as International Editor, I look forward to reporting on the ground, on the biggest global news stories across the globe."

TalkTV will launch nationwide on Monday, April 25.
