Davina McCall has insisted that she was misquoted in recent reports about the future of Big Brother.

Last month, the show's host was alleged to have said that there would only be two more series of the Channel 4 reality TV staple.

"There has been so much stuff written about Big Brother that isn't true and I definitely didn't say that," she told Heat.

"I said that the contract that Channel 4 has with Endemol lasts two more tears and that I'm sure if this series goes well they'll renew it for longer.

"I would never say it's over - thank God my producers know me well enough... It could have been hugely damaging to my career."

McCall will host this year's launch night on Channel 4 at 9pm on Thursday, June 4. She will also present E4 spinoff Big Brother's Big Mouth.
