DAVID Walliams is set to continue his role as the narrator on ITV classic show It'll Be Alright On The Night.<\/p>\n
New episodes of the bloopers show are expected to return despite David's shock departure from Britain's Got Talent. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Returning for its 46th year on screen, the new episodes are set to run on the channel later this year. <\/p>\n
According to TV Zone, more episodes are also expected to be produced and air next year.<\/p>\n
The comedy show features a selection of hilarious blunders.<\/p>\n
David replaced Griff Rhys Jones in 2018 after ratings fell to 2.8million, prompting bosses for a revamp. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The show was first broadcast in 1977 and had audiences of 18\u200amillion in its heyday.<\/p>\n
It was hosted by the late comedy\u00a0writer and presenter Denis Norden until 2006.<\/p>\n
The last episode to feature on ITVX was episode two of series 36 which featured Bradley Walsh, Gardeners' World, Kim Kardashian and, ironically, Bruno Tonioli.<\/p>\n
David, who was on the show for 10 years, was replaced on Britain's Got Talent by Bruno earlier this year.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the last thing on your mind, but she\u2019s like: \u2018Yep, I bet you do!\u2019 \u2018No I don\u2019t!\u2019"<\/p>\n He then referenced his own "shriveled" genitalia in a crude remark. <\/p>\n In a statement following his departure, David said: "I would like to apologise to the people I made disrespectful comments about during breaks in filming for\u00a0Britain\u2019s Got Talent\u00a0in 2020.<\/p>\n \u201cThese were private conversations and \u2013 like most conversations with friends \u2013 were never intended to be shared. Nevertheless, I am sorry.\u201d<\/p>\n The Guardian reported that David and Thames TV lawyers argued that the comments were a private conversation and were never intended for broadcast. <\/p>\n In a statement, Thames TV said: \u201cAlthough relating to a private conversation almost three years ago, the language used was inappropriate.<\/p>\n \u201cEven though it was private, those involved have been spoken to and reminded of their responsibilities and the show\u2019s expectations as to future professional conduct.\u201d<\/p>\n In a statement, ITV said: \u201cWe do not condone the language outlined in these allegations, and we have spoken to the producers of\u00a0Britain\u2019s Got Talent<\/em>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cDuty of care towards all participants on any of our programmes is always of paramount importance and we have protocols and guidelines in place for all our production partners.\u201d<\/p>\n The Sun has contacted ITV for comment.<\/p>\nLove Island star reveals she’s pregnant with first child with footballer<\/h3>\n
