Big Brother eye logos through history
Sixteen series, sixteen eyes, but which is your favourite?
Today heralds the arrival of a brand new Big Brother eye, as the sixteenth series gets its theme. This year it's "timebomb" which we're to understand could see all manner of former contestants return to the house. Time is in the hands of Big Brother and housemates will just have to go with the flow.
Emma Willis returns to host, with Rylan Clark as the Bit on the Side presenter (or perhaps himself going back in...). So how does this new eye shape up against BB eyes gone by? Here are the Big Brother eyes through the years to compare and contrast:
