BO' SELECTA!
A brand new late night topical comedy series, Bo' Selecta! celebrates the world of celebrity in its own unique style. Aided by "The Bear" and rubber masked celebrities (from Craig David to Geri Halliwell, Gareth Gates to David Blaine) obsessive fan Avid Merrion hosts a six part series from the squalor of his bedroom, featuring an eclectic mix of celebrity stories, interviews and gossip.

More details follow Can't wait!!!!

Wicked,Avid Merrion is one funny geezer

Forget Kate, Jade, Spencer or Alex (I assume most people have already forgotten Jonny), Avid Merrion was the hero of BB3. The adverts were brilliant and the time he appeared on BBLB with Spencer was hilarious.

Can't wait for the new show

Spanky

Yeah that was good! I particularly liked the linking of arms debacle

I had no idea that the guy who did the rubber mask versions of Craig David and other celebs was the one and only Avid.

I only saw all that stuff on the Channel 4 half-hour review show from the best bits of E4, which they showed a couple of years ago for a while.

I'm looking forward to seeing the stalkings of Jamie Oliver and Louise again. That's if it shows them on Bo Selecta.
