Marcus Bentley is a British actor, broadcaster and voice-over artist. Bentley is most famous for narrating the United Kingdom's version of the Dutch Reality Television programme Big Brother since its inception in 2000. He also did other continuity announcements for Channel 4 until he left in July 2011 to continue narrating the revived Big Brother on Channel 5. Bentley's voice-over work and strong Geordie accent has led to him becoming one of Britain's most recognised voices. Bentley has also appeared on stage and in The Bill and London's Burning. Although he rarely makes public appearances, his public profile has been raised since Big Brother's revival on Channel 5.
