The hourlong special "focuses on Britain's most eligible bachelorette -- Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton's younger sister -- Pippa Middleton," as the network describes it in its press release.

Pippa Middleton shot to international fame after serving as maid of honor at the wedding of her sister, Kate, to Prince William in April. She won raves for her dress, designed by Sarah Burton of Alexandra McQueen, who also designed Kate's wedding gown.
