tvSep 3, 202612283

Amelia Dimoldenberg announced she will end Chicken Shop Date after a 12-year run, saying only a few final episodes remain. Dimoldenberg created the concept at 17 as a column for a youth club magazine and launched the video series with grime artist Ghetts in 2014. The show’s premise has Dimoldenberg meeting celebrities inside chicken shops for deliberately awkward, often flirtatious interviews delivered in her deadpan style. Over the years guests have included Billie Eilish, Ed Sheeran, Sabrina Carpenter, Jennifer Lawrence, Andrew Garfield, and Sir Paul McCartney. Reflecting on the series, Dimoldenberg wrote that Chicken Shop Date will “be a part of me forever” but that she feels “it’s now time to move on from this adventure and onto a new one.” She thanked viewers for joining the journey and confirmed a few final dates are “coming very soon.” Dimoldenberg has not announced a date for the final episode or revealed who the remaining guests will be.
