Big Brother 2024: Release date, hosts and latest news
The Big Brother house is now full!
Big Brother returned with an epic live launch, as 16 housemates all entered the iconic house - but there was a twist.
As they filed in one-by-one, they were tasked with either going on the blue side or the red side. Once all the housemates were inside, Big Brother revealed it had a trick up its sleeve: One side were housemates and the other non-housemates.
While those on the red side thought strength in numbers saved them, they couldn't have been more wrong, as they were revealed to be the non-housemates and would be living in storage!
But that wasn't all: Those who were placed as non-housemates are also the first group of contestants up for eviction this Friday!
As the season continues, read on for everything you need to know about Big Brother 2024.
