Big Brother finally returned to our screens last year after a five-year hiatus and last year's series, which was won by Jordan Sangha, turned out to be an absolute corker.
Thankfully, we didn't have to wait quite as long for another instalment of the iconic reality show as Big Brother returned to our screens in early October 2024, a year on from the huge success of Big Brother 2023 and what a series it has been so far...
AJ Odudu and Will Best returned as hosts and introduced 16 brand new housemates into the most famous house in Britain earlier this month, but just who are the housemates? And how can we watch the show? Here’s everything you need to know…

Who is hosting Big Brother 2024?
Absolute hun AJ Odudu and her best pal Will Best are once again hosting Big Brother after absolutely smashing it last year and Celebrity Big Brother.
How can I watch Big Brother 2024?
Big Brother airs every night except Saturdays on ITV2 at 9pm. You can also catch up on ITVX and, if you want even more BB goodness, then its sister show Big Brother: Late & Live airs immediately after the main show.
What is the Big Brother prize money?
The winner of Big Brother walks away with £100,000. Phwoar.
Is Big Brother on on Sundays?
Yep. It's on every night apart from Saturdays, which means that Sunday's episode covers house antics from Friday and Saturday. Double the fun, hun.
Who is the voice of Big Brother?
If you're talking about the iconic voice that narrates the show, that's Marcus Bentley. His iconic Geordie tones have narrated Big Brother since the very beginning.
However, if you're talking about the voice of Big Brother when they speak to the housemates, we're not quite sure about that one. It's most likely that Big Brother is voiced by one of the producers of the show.
