Big Brother host Davina McCall is to make a sensational cameo appearance in forthcoming E4 horror series Dead Set.
The five-part zombie thriller is set in a fictional Big Brother house which is increasingly under threat from the blood thirsty masses. Davina plays herself as the horrific events unfold during an eviction night. Viewers will be shocked to see Davina meet a very grisly end. But her appearance doesn’t end there…
Dead Set is written by acclaimed writer Charlie Brooker, who is well known for his columns in The Guardian and his BBC Four series Charlie Brooker’s Screen Wipe.
Charlie comments: "Just as a shopping mall was the ideal setting for the original Dawn of the Dead back in 1978, so the Big Brother house seemed fitting for a TV zombie epic set in the 21st century. Dead Set isn’t an out-and-out comedy, but an unashamedly populist horror-thriller with blackly comic undertones. Think 24 with zombies. And housemates. And gore."
Dead Set also stars Jaime Winstone as the production runner Kelly working on a fictional series of Big Brother, Andy Nyman as her Big Brother producer boss Patrick and Riz Ahmed as her boyfriend Riq. In addition to Davina, former Big Brother housemates also make cameo appearances.
