Ben Frow looks like he is making his mark on Big Brother - how do you feel about the changes?

Well I guess most of his changes are still to be seen. I'm looking forward to working with him and seeing what exciting developments are in store. It's very important that tv shows develop, improve and deliver the best they can and that they don't stand still and be predictable.

What do you think Emma will bring to the eviction show?

Glamour, class and fun. Emma Willis is about to become an even bigger star. She quite simply has it all. And she really is so lovely.

It's been reported that the show will have a wider mix of housemates and return to its social experiment roots. What are your thoughts on that?

I want to meet new and different people from all walks of life. I don't want to meet carbon copies of previous housemates. I want to learn things about exciting individuals and I want to laugh and cry. That's a tall order for the producers to deliver. The show is still basically the so called "social experiment' that it always was. The house, tasks and look of the show have just got better.

One thing we are really excited about is BBBOTS, how would you like the series to look this year?

More sketches and an brand new presenter who loves the show as much as Emma please!

Channel 5 haven't made any huge changes to the house so far, do you think they will this time?

Yes. As far as I know they gutted it after Celeb. I'm expecting big changes. I was told last year that they were also changing the outdoor set. Mind you , that was before the change at Channel 5 , so we'll have to wait and see.

What features would you install in the house if you were in charge?

I would like there to be a secret house with its own housemates that the main house never now about!

There's always a first night twist, what would you make the housemates do on the first night if you we're BB?

A secret mission for one that is so sneaky and devious that it brings out the true natures of the housemates. And has a big decision and a massive financial reward for the successful housemate.

How long do you spend doing your voice overs each day and are you involved in the scripts?

I receive my script from the producers everyday at about 2 then we work on it together and develop the final script which is finally put to tape at about 6 or 7 each evening.

If you could narrate any other tv show what would it be and why?

I would love to narrate a David Attenborough natural world type programme. I wouldn't be so much Big Brother style but would be gentler and calming ( or at least I'd try) I adore Attenborough's programmes.

As a huge fan of BB yourself, how would you take the show to the next level if you we're in charge?

I think that Channel 5 and Endemol have taken it to the next level and are continually adapting the show. The show is sharper and snappier and looks cutting edge and is still leading the way after all these years. I would simply try and make sure that we found the best combination of original housemates possible and devise the most amazing tasks. Easier said than done!

Finally, as you know, die hard fans want more live feed footage. What's your take on that and do you think they'll be more this year?

If the fans are happy then I'm happy. If it was down to me I'd grant them their every wish. However, live streaming is incredibly expensive mainly due to the legal team that have to monitor it Live every time it broadcasts. Last year Channel 5 broadcast streaming on 5 Star after evictions these gained phenomenal viewing figures and I would imagine Channel 5 would like to build on that success.

haha not very exclusve is it.

No, he's basically revealed nothing haha

So he's actively like to do David Attenborough narrating which is gentler and calmer, but previously bitched about how Channel 4 always said he'd get more involvement but never gave him it.

Ugh! When are we getting some more news? I want to see the eye. :bawling:

Is there a link for this interview? there's spelling mistakes in it...

Plus when tweeted him saying I wasn't a fan of the new narrating style he ****ing blocked me.

So to be fair all us fans are in the right with wanting him to tone it down but he would rather ignore an honest opinion but now is agreeing.

I've seen the way you "talk" to celebrities on Twitter so I wouldn't be surprised if you were abusive.

I know that made me laugh.

The house' have been identical for 5 series.

If we get a complete new house I will be so chuffed! A new outdoor set up would literally make me wet.

Marcus does what he's told by the producers, thats his job...and did you not make a thread about him blocking you and you had been abusive to him? or am I thinking of someone else?

To be fair Marcus is hardly in a high up job. He's only the narrator so he's not going to know much more than we do.

He's shared some of his views and repeated a few things he was aware of. Not a bad interview really. No more than what I would expect at least.

Whoever wrote that up though needs to make sure they so SPG checks before publishing. :P
