The house has been given a stunning make-over, Emma Willis and Rylan Clark-Neal are learning their lines and a whole host of brand new celebrities are waiting nervously for 9pm to arrive. It can mean only one thing... the return of Celebrity Big Brother.

That's right, the controversial show is set to return to Channel 5 tonight (Thursday 16th August) and whilst it's being reported that this year's cast includes the likes of Ryan Thomas, Dan Osborne, Gabby Allen and Stormy Daniels, fans think bosses have landed the one and only Caitlyn Jenner as a last minute edition.

Ahead of the show's launch tonight, Kendall and Kylie Jenner's dad was spotted arriving at London's Heathrow Aiport last night, alongside her 22-year-old fiancée Sophia Hutchins.

After the sighting, fans of the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star were quick to speculate on Twitter, with many admitting she'd be a 'brilliant signing'.

However, after some digging, it turns out she's actually in London to appear on Channel 4's The Last Leg on Friday night.

The show tweeted, 'What a line up we have this week! Joining us on the couch we have Caitlyn Jenner and Lily Allen!' [sic]

Maybe she could be a late arrival?! 🤔
