Chrissie Swan doesn’t rule out return to TV

By David Knox on April 18, 2012 / Filed Under News 10

There are no immediate plans but Chrissie Swan doesn’t rule out a return to television.

“Absolutely. Of course. Who wouldn’t?” she told TV Tonight.

“When the time is right and the project is right.

“I just can’t do the day in, day out.”

Swan, who was nominated for Most Popular Presenter at Sunday’s Logies, left The Circle in December to do radio work instead. The move afforded her more family time, particularly following the birth of her second child.

Last week she paid a visit to the show ahead of the Logies weekend.

“It was great. It was like going home, it wasn’t weird at all. I missed Gorgi because she was sick that day, but it was beautiful.”

So what kind of show would she like to appear on next?

“I’m not sure. Presenting of some sort. Something that’s fun and doesn’t mean I need to be hours and hours away from my tiny babies.

“Watch this space.”

    I miss Chrissie too. I would love to see her back. But judging from what she is saying it maybe quite awhile. I can understand that she wants to spend time with her family.

    I think Chrissie would fit in well at Seven maybe something with Kerri-Anne on her upcoming show, those two would bounce off each other so well!!

    I just want Chrissie back on our screens full stop. She is such a joy and a hoot to watch.

    Up Late would conflict heavily with early morning radio commitments and she needs to be Melbourne based for family.

    Seeing her on The Circle last week showed how far the show has sunk since her and Denise left.

    You know what this means…

    Chrissie for Big Brother 2012!

    She would be Amazing as an up-late host!

    Big Brother needs a ‘Big Brother’s Bit on the Side’ show much like UK, probably on something like GO!

    @James. I would hope not because I think 75% of celebrities doing this show already have an ‘expiry date’ when it comes to TV careers. They say yes just to get a gig on TV..

    It would not surprise me (I am dreaming I know) at all to see her return to TV with the up and coming Big Brother series.

    Chrissie and Fitzy, now that would be great – in what role I am not sure.

    I think she would be awesome for Season 3 of Celebrity Apprentice ? What do you think ?

    Her radio days are numbered I would say.

    She was paid big bucks to make the switch and the radio ratings for her show has actually lost market share compared to the show she replaced. People Love her on TV but not so much on radio.
