🎱✨ Big Break is coming back! But does the BBC know what they’re doing? 🎉
In an exciting twist, Big Break is set to make a return to our screens, but not everyone is thrilled. Original host Jim Davidson had a few things to say following the announcement of this beloved snooker-themed game show’s comeback. With comic Paddy McGuinness and snooker legend Stephen Hendry stepping in, Davidson can’t help but compare the new team to the classic duo of himself and the late, great John Virgo.
Davidson voiced his doubts, saying, “The BBC doesn’t really know how to make TV programmes.” He fondly remembered the chemistry he shared with Virgo, dubbing it a “big act to follow.” 😲
While Davidson is sceptical about McGuinness’s capabilities beyond autocue reading, he did express his admiration for Hendry. He hopes the new hosts strike up their chemistry, urging, “Do what you want to do and may the public embrace you.”
Stephen Hendry is just as excited about the revival, eager to showcase trick shots and captivate a new generation of snooker fans. “Big Break was a unique mix of trick shots and great entertainment,” Hendry shared optimistically.
The new series aims to capture the spirit of the original while offering a fresh twist. Set your reminders for late 2026 on BBC Two and iPlayer! 📺🎱 Will this revival shoot to the top like its predecessor? Only time will tell if Paddy and Stephen can pocket those laughs and capture viewers’ hearts!
