The long-awaited first trailer for the 2025 series was released just days ago, amid swirling rumours about this year’s lineup.

The trailer sees the return of the iconic guinea pigs that took centre stage in promoting the civilian series last year, but this year they’ve been given a starry twist.

Last year, Celebrity Big Brother made its return to UK television with an explosive series, with David Potts going onto be crowned series champion.

Now, a new batch of VIPs are preparing to embark on the original social experiment, taking up residence in the house, which has moved to a brand-new location for the forthcoming instalment.

Rumours have been swirling about the names that could be heading into the famous house, with stars including Coronation Street’s Jack P Shepherd, TOWIE’s Ella Rae Wise and Love Island’s Chris Hughes among those reported to be taking part.

However, while anticipation has been building for the new series, fans were recently left fuming after it emerged that it would be hit by a huge scheduling shake-up.

The much-anticipated new run is set to kick off next month, with names including Love Island’s Chris Hughes, Olympian Daley Thompson and Corrie star Jack P Shepherd among those rumoured to be heading into the house.

AJ and Will fronted the reboot series of Big Brother on ITV2 in 2023 when it returned to screens, having last aired on Channel 5, five years prior.

While fans hoped to tune into each episode in the primetime slot of 9pm, it’s been revealed that the show will be airing at the later time of 10pm on Sundays.

This is for ITV to maintain the earlier time of 8-10pm as a prime spot for new dramas.

The move also means that the CBB aftershow Late and Live will not be broadcast until 11pm on Sunday nights.

The news sparked fury from die-hard fans of the show, already upset that the upcoming celebrity edition will be on screen for less than three weeks.
