FORMER sports presenter David Icke is to make a TV comeback on the next series of Big Brother.
Icke, who has a home on the Isle of Wight, has been snapped up by TV chiefs in a bid to secure runaway ratings.
The ex-BBC employee is famous for wearing a turquoise shellsuit on the Wogan show and claiming to be the Son of God.
He also said his clothing was the colour of positive energy, not a negative colour like black.
Icke, 52, is a former professional goalkeeper who developed arthritis in his late teens and was forced to retire at the age of 20. He turned to journalism and presented Breakfast Time with Frank Bough and Selina Scott.
Icke will be joined on Big Brother by Mandy Allwood, who made headlines in 1996 when she revealed she was pregnant with eight babies - thanks to IVF treatment.
Doctors advised her to abort some but she refused and all her octuplets died.
