Judi Love is set to broaden her horizons from the stage to studying as she revealed plans to embark on a PhD.
The Loose Women panellist, 44, spoke out on how she wants to expand her repertoire of work.
Speaking to The Mirror on Thursday, Judi expressed wanting to get on the road and performing stand-up again, as well as focus more on writing and directing art.
Judi even revealed she would love to host a reboot of the iconic show Blind Date – which used to be fronted by the late Cilla Black. ‘Let’s manifest it,’ she said. ‘I’m going to put that on my vision board.’
But the TV personality, who already has two university degrees, also admitted she hopes to do a PhD on how laughter affects mental health – or women’s health.

‘I want to get back on the road and do my comedy tour,’ she said.
‘I’d love to do more writing, producing and directing. I want to go back to university and do a PhD.
‘I’d like to study how laughter affects your mental health. Otherwise I’d study something connected to women’s health.’
The confession came one day after Judi shot daggers at Coleen Nolan as she was called out for a ‘rude’ habit during Wednesday’s Loose Women.
The panel, which also consisted of Brenda Edwards and Charlene White, were discussing Greggs‘ latest announcement that they will refuse service to customers who keep their earphones in while queuing up.
As they discussed whether it’s acceptable or not to do, Brenda kicked off the conversation by saying: ‘When you go to a till, it is rude if you’re going to be in a conversation when someone’s speaking to you.
‘I do think that. I’m not taking off my headphones while I’m in the queue because I don’t want to hear what you’re saying in front or behind until I get to the front of the queue.’
She reasoned: ‘I don’t think that it is right to do that but I have been into some of those establishments myself and there’s a lack of manners when you’re speaking to someone who’s trying to serve you.

‘I say please, they don’t say please or thank you back, I give you the change in your hand, you give it to me on the counter. I just think it works both ways.’
Then, Charlene called on Judi for her opinion, as she said: ‘I’ve got to talk to Judi about this one because if there is a woman who loves being on the phone, mid-conversation sometimes…’
‘I do love the phone, it’s attached to my face,’ admitted Judi, ‘What I’m saying is sometimes it depends what the conversation is or who I’m speaking to.’
She explained: ‘Most of the time I will be like “Just one second babes, popping into the shop” and I might quickly do what I’m doing and acknowledge it and then I’ll go back into the conversation.
‘It would be rare that I would put the phone down depending on what establishment I’m going in.’
‘I do love the phone, it’s attached to my face,’ admitted Judi, ‘What I’m saying is sometimes it depends what the conversation is or who I’m speaking to’
As she put forward her reasons for not hanging up, Coleen interjected with: ‘I think it’s rude. It’s rude, it’s bad manners and it’s rude’.
The live audience seemed to agree as they erupted into cheers and applause, with Judi joking that the positive reaction was for her.
Elaborating, Coleen said: ‘I think it’s rude when you’re sitting there having a conversation with someone and the phone rings and they go and answer the phone. You’re talking to me, don’t answer the phone.’
