Ozzy Osbourne moved with his wife and kids to start a new life in Los Angeles 20 years ago, then took America by storm by allowing cameras into their fascinatingly dysfunctional family life.
The Osbournes ran for three years, quickly becoming MTV’s most-watched programme ever. It won an Emmy and a legion of fans worldwide, and, of course, paved the way for The Kardashians.
So it goes without saying that news that the BBC is bringing back the reality show as the family return to Britain has been met with unbridled excitement... from everyone, that is, except Ozzy.
