Gladiators recommissioned
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 by Graham Kibble-White
Sky One have commissioned a second series of Gladiators. But there’s a twist..
Having staggered into the arena for Sunday’s Gladiators: The Legends Return, the formerly hirsuite howler, Wolf, has signed on to play an “Alex Ferguson-type role as team manager and mentor to the Gladiators”.
The man himself (real name Michael Van Wijk) says: “I was blown away by the buzz I felt competing in the Gladiators arena again. It was like I’d never been away. The audience was explosive and phenomenal and clearly wanted more of the Wolfman. Hearing them chant my name brought back some incredible memories and it all made me realise how much I just had to come back. John Anderson better be on top of his game – the Wolf will be watching his every move!”
As for who’s presenting, it looks like Kirsty Gallacher is out, as “Sky One will also be announcing a new female co-host shortly.”
