Ex-senator to headline scandal show

Disgrace! is the title of a new television show to be piloted by Network Ten and hosted by former Labor senator Sam Dastyari.

Controversial former Labor senator Sam Dastyari will take to the airwaves in a Network Ten television program, Disgrace!

The show, to be piloted in August, is described as a "half-hour of opinion, insight and laughs" with Dastyari billed as a "shunned politician".

The panel show is expected to examine social and political scandals, discussing how they are being handled and the fallout.

It will be produced by the team behind Gruen and The Chaser.

Dastaryi resigned from federal parliament over a scandal involving his links to Chinese business figures.
