How long has Steph’s Packed Lunch been running?

If you’ve been a fan of Steph’s Packed Lunch from the beginning – then you will know the show started off with a completely different name.

In late 2019, Channel 4 announced that a new live daytime programme presented by McGovern called The Steph Show had been commissioned.

On March 30, 2020 – the new show aired for the first time from the specially built studio overlooking Leeds Docks, just one week into the coronavirus lockdown.

Due to the restrictions during the pandemic The Steph Show started broadcasting from the presenter’s home – however, this caused logistical problems and it was announced that the show would be taken off air for a while.

When the lunchtime show returned in September 2020, it came back with a new name – Steph’s Packed Lunch.
