Overview
- Carr told the BBC he rejects claims he is playing a role on the series and called fan theories about him "quite bizarre."
- He has reached the final five with Cat Burns, Joe Marler, Nick Mohammed and David Olusoga, with the winner revealed Thursday at 9 p.m. on BBC One.
- Recent episodes drew heavy attention to his eliminations of high-profile contestants, which he joked made him "the most hated man in the UK."
- The Mirror, citing unnamed sources and The Sun, reports he was flown to a European city late last month to film a primetime pilot for BBC Studios.
- Those reports say bosses reacted positively and a green light is likely, but neither the BBC nor Carr has announced a deal or confirmed the project.
