Davina McCall Denies Quitting Big Brother - Big Brother 9 Eye Logo Revealed

by Dave Parrack

Big Brother 9 Eye LogoLast week it was reported that Davina McCall was planning to quit being presenter of Big Brother after the forthcoming ninth series had finished. She’s now come out to deny this, and claim that she’d only leave in her coffin.

The News Of The World newspaper had claimed that McCall had eventually decided the time was right to move on, and was eyeing up a serious acting career instead. However, it seems now, after Davina’s denial, that the story was concocted from the fact that McCall has recently changed agents.

Speaking at the London première of the Sex And The City movie, she told reporters:

“I’m not leaving Big Brother. They would have to kill me before I’d stop doing it.”

This will please some but others will be wishing the rumours were true, and that she was indeed going. Her interviewing technique has always split fans right down the middle.

The new series of Big Brother is set to kick off on June 5th, and a few details are being fed to us addicts to try and increase the anticipation. First of all we have the new eye logo, which changes every year, and is pictured above. It shows the same eye as always but in a splintered effect, all coloured black except one slice of red.

This could mean that the show will be focussed on splitting the contestants up, and creating tensions amongst the various groups. Or it could mean one contestant is singled out for preferential treatment. Or it could of course mean absolutely nothing.

Davina also spoke about what was to come, and said:

“We’re going to be much tougher with rules this year.”

I can’t wait for the new series to kick off, as I always enjoy it no matter how the programme-makers decide to play it, and what sort of a mixture of contestants get in. I’m really hoping this one will be a classic, and even beat last year’s brilliantly comic turn. Fingers crossed.
