The Question Time special follows Sir Keir Starmer's announcement on Monday 22 June that he will resign as leader of the Labour Party and Prime Minister of the UK.
The Question Time special will air at 8pm on Friday 26 June, ahead of a Death in Paradise repeat at 9pm. BBC One had been set to air a repeat of Sort Your Life Out with Stacey Solomon at 8pm on Friday, but this has now been dropped from the schedule.
"With Andy Burnham now back at Westminster and the favourite to become the next prime minister, a panel of politicians and commentators will field questions from our audience in Kettering about what all of this could mean for the country."
Question Time is no stranger to hosting special episodes and format changes. Last month, the programme aired an AI special which began with a twist, showing an imagined AI panel made up of Mahatma Gandhi, Frida Kahlo, Che Guevara and Emmeline Pankhurst.
The BBC's schedule was also moved around on Monday following Starmer's announcement, with EastEnders being moved to BBC Two that day.
