The legendary 90s reality television show that had the nation gripped, Home Away From Home, is set to make a sensational return to our screens. ITV bosses are in advanced talks to reboot the iconic series, aiming to reunite the original cast members who became household names.
The groundbreaking format, which first aired in 1995, saw a group of strangers forced to live together in a country house, their every move captured by cameras. It was a ratings juggernaut for ITV, pioneering the reality TV genre in the UK and drawing millions of viewers with its unique blend of drama and everyday life.
A Nostalgic Blast from the Past
Producers are keen to tap into the current wave of 90s nostalgia, believing the time is perfect to revisit the format. The goal is not to create a new series with fresh faces, but to bring back the very individuals who made the show a cultural phenomenon.
"The original cast are legends of the genre," a source revealed. "The idea is to get them back together to see where they are now and what they make of each other all these years later. The hope is that it will be a real treat for viewers who loved the show first time around."
Will The Original Stars Return?
While the project is still in its early stages, the response from the original cast has reportedly been positive. The potential for a reboot has sent fans into a frenzy on social media, with many speculating about which memorable characters from the show's history will be the first to sign on.
The return of Home Away From Home is part of a wider trend of reviving classic television shows. In an era crowded with streaming content, broadcasters are increasingly relying on proven formats with built-in audience recognition to cut through the noise.
If the deals are finalised, filming for the new series could begin later this year, with an air date likely in 2025.
