Big Brother legend Alison Hammond supposedly emerges as the favourite to host the show when it returns on ITV2 in 2023.

Big Brother legend Alison Hammond is reportedly one of the names in the frame to host the revived version of the show on ITV2 next year.

The 47-year-old appeared alongside the likes of Jade Goody, Adele Roberts and Kate Lawler on the third series of the show in 2002 - and in the 20 years since she has carved out a successful career as a TV presenter.

Hammond currently hosts This Morning alongside ex-BBLB presenter Dermot O'Leary, and according to The Mirror, she could soon have another hosting job on her hands.

"Alison is top of the list to present next year's Big Brother," a source told the newspaper.

"Execs think she's exactly what the show needs. She's energetic, fun, relatable and she was on the show, so she knows it inside out."

Other names in the frame to host the new series, which is rumoured to begin in May, include Mo Gilligan and Rylan Clark.
