The Pledge is a panel discussion programme broadcast on Sky News.[1] There are currently ten panellists, five of whom appear on the show each week. They discuss a variety of topics – there is no presenter, so each panellist champions a topic which is then debated.
The programme was first announced in April 2016, and the first episode aired later that month, on 21 April 2016.[2][3] The show is known for at times being controversial, and debates often get heated.[4]
The Pledge is currently not on air having been suspended in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[citation needed] It is currently unknown when or if the show will return.
