Rylan Clark ‘first choice’ to host Big Brother revival

OHMYGOSSIP — Rylan Clark is said to be “first choice” to host the upcoming ‘Big Brother’ reboot.
The beloved reality show – which was axed five years ago by Channel 5 – is said to be poised for a return on ITV2 in autumn 2023, and the former ‘Bit On The Side’ presenter is seemingly in pole position to front the comeback.
An insider told The Sun newspaper’s TV Biz column: “Rylan couldn’t have made it any clearer with his intention – he would love that job.
“Those working on the early stages of the production think the same and this role is made for Rylan. He is the first choice of host above Davina [McCall] and Emma [Willis] for many.
“Rylan is really current and has a huge following, plus his love of ‘Big Brother’ makes him the ultimate fan. There really is no one better placed to take it on.”
It’s said Rylan has made sure bosses know he’s thrilled by the prospect of the show being back on air.
He added: “Rylan put himself front and centre with a number of telly producers the moment he found out ‘Big Brother’ was coming back.
“He absolutely loves the show and when the news broke he texted a handful of people to show just how excited he was about Big Brother’s return.”
‘Big Brother’ first ran from 2000 to 2010 on Channel 4, before Channel 5 relaunched it in 2011 until it ended in September 2018.
Former hosts include Davina McCall, Brian Dowling and Emma Willis.
ITV bosses are considering broadcasting the show in the autumn, after the summer season of ‘Love Island’ has aired.
A source recently said: “They think putting it on ITV2 will open it up to a new audience and legion of younger fans.
“They are really keen on getting the deal done on ‘Big Brother’, and hope to have something firm to announce soon.
“The talks are still at an early, and delicate, stage and the next few weeks will be key.”
