'The Crystal Maze' Is Back And David Tennant Is Favourite To Be New Presenter

Well that's slightly unexpected...

Do you remember The Crystal Maze? Of course you do. It was fucking brilliant telly.

Well, in the theme of literally everything good being remade (because apparently we're just completely out of good ideas) the 1990s smash hit is coming back but, this time, with a new presenter.

Weirdly, the favourite to host the revamp is David Tennant of Doctor Who fame.

According to The Sun, it's only being penciled in for a one-off special at the moment, but if the celebrity special does well then they're going to go all in for a full series.

A source told the newspaper: "Even two decades after it last aired, there are very few shows that have been as magical and action-packed as The Crystal Maze. It is still remembered extremely fondly today.

"Channel 4 are hoping to tap into that nostalgia and believe viewers will jump at the chance to finally take on the show's adventurous challenges themselves."

Well, it was absolutely massive during its run from 1990-1995 so I'm actually pretty surprised it's taken this long to relaunch it.

What do you reckon, will you be watching? Let us know in the comments below.
