A source told the Mirror: "The pilot will be filmed in Los Angeles in September and it'll be one of Patsy's first jobs since relocating.

"The show is inspired by The Office and Extras and will centre around the fictional relocation service Make It Hollywood, which brings UK celebs across the pond.

"The creators are in talks with a number of US networks and independent company Next Stop Media is behind the project."
