Default ITV boss "overwhelmed" by response to BB return

Speaking this week to the Broadcasting Press Guild, ITV programmes boss Kevin Lygo said: 'People thought that Big Brother would never come back but we were overwhelmed by the response when we announced it.'

He wants Marcus Bentley to return as show narrator. Marcus has already stated that he'd love to return.

I honestly wouldn't mind BB coming back similar to The Traitors in terms of how the Show is edited, plus the cutthroat gameplay.

I just hope it doesn't come back like Love Island like you've also said.

He's only around his mid fifties.

I think it would be good to have that link with previous series myself.

It wasn't poor because of him.
It was the daft endless twists and at times choices of housemates which brought it down.

I still liked it.
I never wanted it to end.

Marcus can only do the commentary on what the content is and what is seen.
It's not his fault.

Anyway what should age matter??

He posts loads of BB clips on his Twitter. Clearly still loves the show that made his name.

He's been busy on something else this week:

Marcus Bentley
@marcusBBbentley

I’m currently half way through recording 40 episodes of the most fabulous tv show - not sure when I can announce, but it’s launching in February!

I've always said BigBrother had more mileage in it.
Never said anything different.
