Big Brother 2024: release date, trailer, hosts and everything we know

Following on from the huge success of Big Brother 2023, which saw the show return to our screens for the first time in five years, we now have Big Brother 2024 to look forward to - and its arrival is just around the corner. 

It was announced during the Love Island 2024 live final that the show would be returning to ITV for a second run, and with it came the first look at the rebranded famous Big Brother eye, which is just as bright and colourful as always, but this time on a yellow background. 

Here's everything we know so far about Big Brother 2024...

Big Brother 2024 release date 

Big Brother 2024 starts on Sunday, October 6 at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX with the Big Brother: Live Launch, which will reveal a new batch of housemates as they prepare to move into the nation’s most iconic house.

Last year Big Brother aired nightly at 9 pm (except Saturdays) across six weeks and it is thought this year's series will follow the same format.

Big Brother: Late & Live also returns to ITV2 and ITVX each evening, bringing us unmissable action alongside hilarious discussions and deliberations with a star-studded panel of celebrity guests. 

Big Brother: Live Stream will also return to screens, airing seven nights a week on ITVX, allowing fans to watch live footage from the house into the small hours after Big Brother: Late & Live.

After proving popular with viewers last year, TV presenter and Strictly Come Dancing 2021 star AJ Odudu and her close friend and Dance, Dance, Dance presenter, Will Best, will return to host. 

The pair will split hosting duties on the main show, chatting to housemates about all the latest goings-on in the Big Brother house and presiding over the live evictions. 

Speaking of their favorite moments from Big Brother history Will said: “David’s Dead”. It had it all. It was hilarious, dramatic, tragic, poignant…all in one rollercoaster reality TV episode. AJ added: My favourite moment of all time is the legendary housemate Nikki Grahame’s iconic outbursts; God rest her soul. She gave us unforgettable diary room moments like ‘Who is she?’ and ‘the mountain of cornflakes’. It doesn’t get more iconic than that."

It is also thought that Marcus Bentley (the original voice of Big Brother UK) will be returning as the series' narrator. 

Is there a trailer for Big Brother 2024? 

Yes, the new trailer, which was released on Friday, September 13 sees guinea pigs making themselves at home in the Big Brother house. As the fluffy friends make a mess of the new house, the camera pans out to see AJ and Will watching their every move. 

A teaser trailer was released over the summer and revealed a first look at the Big Brother eye logo - which this series is made out of marbled paint.

Lawyer Jordan Sangha from Scunthorpe was crowned Big Brother 2023 winner in the live final on November 17, 2023. AJ and Will announced the news during the special episode, revealing that nearly six million public votes had been cast to decide the winner. "I haven't the foggiest idea [why they voted for me] but I'm delighted they did", said Jordan. "The money will be nice, won't it?".
