Is Big Brother on every night? What channel is Big Brother 2023 on, when does it start and full TV schedule

Big Brother is back - the reality TV show has been revived in a new reboot from ITV. It’s been five long years since we’ve seen the diary room or heard the familiar voice of narrator Marcus Bentley, but Big Brother UK is finally back.

The reality show that sees housemates thrust in front of cameras 24/7 has officially returned to ITV and it is already bringing the drama. We have already met our 16 brand new contestants who entered the Big Brother house last night.

The games have already begun, with Jenkin's drawing the short straw, in just one night he's already lost his access to hot water, has to make someone breakfast, had his suitcase blown up and accidently put Olivia forward for the public vote on Friday.

Big Brother first arrived on our screens in 2000, with the latest series being the twentieth season of the long-running social experiment. Originally airing on Channel 4, it moved to Channel 5 in August 2011, before the series ended in 2018.
