The iconic reality show’s narrator Marcus Bentley will be back to voice the revival on ITV2 this autumn, The Sun can reveal.
Marcus, 55, has been the narrator of the programme since its very first episode all the way back on Channel 4 in 2000.
His distinctive voice will be heard once again when Big Brother relaunches.
An insider said: “It was a no brainer to have Marcus back for the new era – he is simply the voice associated with Big Brother UK.”
It comes after The Sun exclusively revealed the brand new presenters of the fly on the wall reality show.
AJ Odudu will soon be formally unveiled as the host of Big Brother alongside Will Best.
The Strictly Come Dancing star will front the reboot alongside former T4 presenter Will.
AJ, 35, and Will, 38, who previously hosted talent show Dance Dance Dance alongside Alesha Dixon, are thrilled at their pairing.
ITV previously announced they were reviving the beloved reality series after a five-year hiatus.
The broadcaster confirmed the news last August with auditions for the new era now open.
However, the BB reboot has been thrown into chaos after its new house has fallen through.
An insider has told us: “Production thought they had found the perfect location to shoot the new series in, but the show being pushed back by so many months meant the place they wanted was no longer available at that time.
“It’s been a real blow as bosses have had to go back to the drawing board, and it’s another headache for the show as the delay already messed with crew availability and annoyed some production staff who had their contracts paused or cancelled.”
After Channel 4 ditched Big Brother in 2010 it moved to Channel 5 where it was presented by Brian Dowling before he was replaced by Emma Willis.
Channel 5 axed the long-running show in 2018.
