The BBC's flagship political debate programme Question Time is returning to Plymouth - and you could be in the virtual audience.

The show, presented Fiona Bruce, will be back in the city on June 18.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic and social distancing measures, the programme will be filmed with a virtual audience rather than a live one.

If you would like to take part in the programme, from the safety of your own home, you need to fill in an online form.

The BBC says: "Please note that everyone applying to be part of the audience is required to complete this form.

"We contact applicants on the Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday before the programme.

"Question Time audience members will be requested to come up with TWO questions to be considered for the programme.

"It's important that as many applicants as possible get the chance to be part of a Question Time audience.

"If you have been in a QT audience within the past ten years we are delighted that you want to do it all over again, but please give others a chance and don't apply this time round. If you have applied before but not been successful, we welcome your application."

In June 17 a Plymouth man was kicked off the programme by presenter David Dimbleby for repeated heckling of guests.

The man had questioned whether Theresa May was a strong enough leader to be Prime Minister.
