Holly Willoughby and Freddie Flintoff remain 5/2 favourites to host the reboot of Gladiators
Another reboot of hit show Gladiators has been announced by the BBC and bookies are giving odds on who will host the show.
Holly Willoughby and Freddie Flintoff remain the bookies favourites to host the show, with Marvin and Rochelle Humes just behind in the betting market.
The show is set to air in 2023 on the BBC after a failed reboot of the show on Sky 1 back in 2008 and Betway have odds on the hosts.
| Gladiator Reboot Presenters | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Holly Willoughby and Freddie Flintoff
|
5/2 | 28.6% |
| Marvin and Rochelle Humes
|
7/2 | 22.2% |
| James Haskell and Chloe Madeley | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Isa Guha and Freddie Flintoff | 9/1 | 10.0% |
| Alex Scott and Ian Wright | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Sadly John Fashanu and Ulrika Jonsson don't feature in the betting market to host the show again.
Marvin and Rochelle Humes are currently hosts on BBC quiz show The Hit List on Saturday night's and the BBC could well offer another show to them.
Former Love Island star Wes Nelson is the 6/4 favourite to be a Gladiator in the new series
2018 Love Island contestant turned singer Wes Nelson has a 40% chance of being one of the Gladiators in the reboot of the hit show.
The betting odds suggest that it will be a whole host of famous names who are Gladiators in the reboot.
Second favourite Josh Herdman appeared on ITV show The Games as did Nelson and that is a recurring theme in this betting market.
| Gladiators Reboot - To Be A Gladiator | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Wes Nelson | 6/4 | 40.0% |
| Josh Herdman | 7/2 | 22.2% |
| Chelcee Grimes | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| Lawrence Okoye | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Phoenix Gulzar-Brown | 6/1 | 14.3% |
The original series of Gladiators aired 10th October 1992 to 1st January 2000
Gladiators originally aired on 10th October 1992 to 1st January 2000 in its first spell on UK television, produced by LWT for ITV.
The show was revived for Sky 1 then and aired between May 2008 and October 2009 but failed to be a success.
The BBC will be hoping that changes with their reboot set to air next year and it's a near certainty that they'll put a lot behind the show.
Kate Phillips, director of unscripted at the BBC, said: “Gladiators is back and a whole new generation of viewers can look forward to watching a Saturday night spectacle like no other".
