Anna Chapman, the red headed spy caught red handed in America, has swapped covert for overt by hosting a dodgy Russian investigation show.

‘Mysteries of the World with Anna Chapman’, for RenTV sees the flame haired temptress investigate mysterious global events (USA based 'mysteries' are, presumably, off limits).

One of Chapman’s first tasks will be to report on a baby in Dagestan said to have a skin condition which has produced markings which resemble Koranic verses.

A trailer dubs the unfortunate Ali Yakubov a “miracle child”, although the unlikely story might have a happy ending. A local oligarch is said to be building a house for the family.

Strangely the skin markings seem to oscillate every few days, first becoming visible only to swiftly vanish.

Chapman has enjoyed celebrity status in her homeland since being unceremoniously ejected from the land of the free in a Cold War style spy swap.

This has helped her secure a senior post within the youth wing of the ruling United Russia party and a lucrative consultancy position with an investment bank and even posed for the Russian edition of men’s magazine Maxim.
