The makers of Big Brother made sure that a Jade Goody and PJ Ellis sex tape didn't get out in 2002, according to narrator Marcus Bentley.

With the pioneering reality TV series returning to our screens this autumn after a five-year layoff, with an all-new presenting line-up in the form of AJ Odudu and Will Best, Bentley, 55, has recalled some of the craziest moments across the show's history while chatting to Metro.

"There was a bit of hanky-panky. Jade and PJ [Ellis] got it together supposedly," he said. "Apparently, there was a recording of that as obviously they are filming all the time.

"The film was put in a safe because at the time it was a little bit explicit," elaborated Bentley.

"I never saw it. I have heard from the horse's mouth that they put that tape where nobody could have it and eventually, they destroyed it. They may be adults but they are young adults. You can't just roast them for a few extra views. They have to have a duty of care."

Seven years after her star-making appearance on Big Brother, Goody tragically passed away from cervical cancer, leaving behind two young sons in Bobby and Freddie.

Their father Jeff Brazier has previously referred to the pain it brings him knowing that both boys (who are now teenagers) will never know their late mother.

"My gosh, they are just so resilient," he proudly shared. "Of course they were so young when she died and it pains me to think they never knew Jade in the same way we all did.

"When I look at Bobby and Freddie I see their mother's colourful personality shining through. I mean, Jade was one of the biggest characters out there and the boys have both inherited that from her."
