Big Brother Bingo

What is Big Brother?

Big Brother is a social experiment game show filled with contestants who are referred to as housemates. They must live in the Big Brother house, secluded from the outside world for several weeks (54 days in the case of the 2026 season). The housemates must nominate who they want to see put up for eviction. The general public then vote on who to evict and the loser must leave the Big Brother house immediately. Whoever is left at the end, is crowned the winner.

The housemates are under 24/7 camera surveillance, have to follow strict rules, stick to a weekly shopping budget for the entire house, and they have to take part in weekly tasks. The Big Brother house includes a ‘diary room’ where the contestants can go to privately discuss any thoughts/feelings about the game or their housemates with Big Brother.

Big Brother returned on 13th September 2026.  The celebrity version will not run this year and its future is looking uncertain.

Where to Watch

Big Brother 2026 will air on ITV2 and ITVX, every evening excluding Saturdays. There’s no spin off show this time round (it’s been replaced by a podcast) and the live feed has also been axed.
