Boris Johnson has refused to say whether he will take part in a BBC interview with presenter Andrew Neil.
The leaders of Labour, the SNP, the Lib Dems and the Brexit Party have all agreed to be questioned for 30 minutes by the journalist.
But asked multiple times by BBC political correspondent Ben Wright if he would appear, the PM would not confirm it.
“I will have all sorts of interviews with all sorts of people,” he said.
On Wednesday, the BBC Press Office tweeted it was “in ongoing discussions” with No 10, but said they had not “yet been able to fix a date” for the sit-down between Mr Neil and the PM.
Conservative leader Mr Johnson confirmed the talks were still taking place, but he said it was “not my job” to make the final decision.
He added: “Other people than me are responsible for those discussions and negotiations, and I do not want to pre-empt what they may decide.”
SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn took part in their interviews earlier this week.
The interview with Lib Dem leader Jo Swinson is set to air on 4 December and another with Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage will be shown on 5 December.
