The US show 'Catfish' has had huge success state side. the show about catching online fraudsters always manages to bring in a crowd, with multiple series of the show in America.
News just broke however that Catfish is coming to the UK. Who will host this show you ask? None other than YouTube star Alfie Deyes, otherwise known as PointlessBlog. One of the US hosts, Nev, has stated that, "There's a production company currently putting together a UK series".
The popular Nev seems happy with the appointment of Deyes despite showing interest to host the show himself. In my opinion the British Alfie will be more relatable to the British audience.
This is another example of how YouTubers are slowly morphing into mainstream news. Watch this space.
