CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER SET FOR LATER TIMESLOT ON ITV1 FOLLOWING SUNDAY NIGHT DRAMA

EXCLUSIVE

The upcoming series of Celebrity Big Brother, which will see a new batch of celebs take up residence in the UK’s most famous abode, could have a different Sunday night schedule to last series.

The series will air as usual from Sunday-Friday on ITV1, however TV Zone understands that Sunday night episodes are likely to air at 10pm due to ITV airing drama on Sunday evening as part of New Drama Sundays which the broadcaster launched earlier this year.

ITV are yet to finalise its schedule for April, meaning until then it's not confirmed. The weekday episodes, including live evictions, will air at 9pm as normal.

Earlier this year it was revealed that the house would have a brand new location and will move out of its Garden Studios home where it has been since the show was revived by ITV. It's now been revealed the the Big Brother house will be located within Titan Studios in West London.

The iconic Big Brother house will play host to all the action - clever tasks, nail-biting nominations and live evictions will be back. The public once again plays a crucial role, voting throughout the series and ultimately determining the winner, who will walk away with a life changing cash prize. 

Big Brother will be followed each night by Big Brother: Late & Live - hosted live by AJ Odudu and Will Best from the site of the Big Brother house in front of a studio audience - giving viewers an additional hour of exclusive Big Brother content.

Big Brother: Late & Live will be the only place to watch the evictees first live interview alongside an array of unmissable exclusive features including access to the camera runs, celebrity guest commentary and debate plus weekly nomination results.

Paul Mortimer, Director of Reality Commissioning and Acquisitions said, “Big Brother programming has firmly established itself across ITV's platforms and become a favourite with our viewers. Together, Big Brother and Celebrity Big Brother have grown audiences on ITV1 and ITV2 and amassed almost 100 million streams on ITVX...

"We’re therefore very excited to be able to throw open the House doors once again for another series of both Big Brother and Celebrity Big Brother in 2025 which are sure to promise more unmissable entertaining and captivating moments.”

Katy Manley, Managing Director of Initial, said: “We are so excited to be coming back with more Celebrity Big Brother and Big Brother. Both series have really resonated with audiences, and we can’t wait to make more. As always, viewers can look forward to Big Brother keeping Housemates - celebrities and civilians alike - on their toes.”
