Scotty T is reportedly in talks about making a comeback on Geordie Shore for the upcoming 10-year anniversary.

The 32-year-old left the show three years ago due to his involvement in a tabloid drugs scandal, but according to The Sun, MTV is considering bringing him back for the next series.

The show is said to be gearing up for its biggest series to date, with a host of former and current stars flying out to Colombia to mark Geordie Shore's decade on the air.

"Scotty is in talks to return to the show - the UK team and the cast especially would love to have him back but the problem is that MTV's US team are worried about the scandal," a source told the newspaper.

"Scotty is a loose cannon and can't be controlled so they don't want to run into another scandal on one of their biggest series that they show all over the world. But Scotty makes great TV and the cast love him."

Original cast member Gaz Beadle is thought to have turned down an approach to return to the show.
