Big Brother’s Big Mouth will be returning to our screens this May with the launch of Big Brother 8 but unfortunately Russell Brand will not be presenting it.

Russell Brand has decided to quit the show after he rose from being a relative unknown to a household name in a matter of months.

An insider said: “In the last few years he’s gone from being a relative unknown to one of the biggest names on TV. And success like that brings a lot of exciting offers. He just felt the time was right to move on.”

I wonder if the show will survive without Russell? His zany humour and crazy stunts made the show as popular as it was…can it continue without him? Time will tell….
