It's now confirmed. Live shows on Friday night, Emma Willis at the helm. £100,000 prize. One winner.
Yes, it's back.
The Circle that is.
For those who don't know The Circle was C4's first real attempt at a stripped reality show since it ditched Big Brother in 2010. The twist is the contestants all live in seperate apartments and only communicate through social media, with the weekly evictee then getting to meet one person before they leave.
Emma "hosts absolutely everything" Willis has IMO quite surprisingly been named as host of the second series considering you'd think they'd want to actually distance itself from Big Brother comparisons. Last year Alice Levine (previously of BOTS) and Maya Jama (very much an emerging talent) hosted, and although the show clearly didn't need two hosts I'd have thought they'd have held on to Maya.
