Big Brother to return to screens in ITV reboot after five years away

Big Brother will return to screens next year following a five-year hiatus after being revived by ITV, it has now been confirmed. The influential reality TV programme, which was shown on Channel 4 and 5 previously, aired for 18 years in the UK until it was axed in 2018.

It will return in 2023 on ITV2 and new streaming platform ITVX, with its famous house featuring a 'contemporary new look'. The news was confirmed by a promotional video that aired during the Love Island series finale on ITV2.

A cast of 'carefully selected housemates from all walks of life' will live together for up to six weeks as the public watch on via the house’s network of surveillance cameras. Big Brother’s trademark live evictions will also return with the public once again voting throughout the series and ultimately deciding the winner of the cash prize.
