Big Brother is back on our telly screens and is expected to be bigger and better than ever before.

The last time the popular reality programme aired in the UK was in 2018 when it was still under the Channel 5 banner.

After five years, ITV has acquired the show with the reboot having taken place on Sunday night (October 8).

Previously, the housemates taking part were kept tightly under wraps with only the eyes of the contestants being shared with fans.

Who is hosting Big Brother 2023?

Big Brother is being hosted by AJ Odudu and Will Best with the pair being the first to front the show in five years.

Previously, the fan favourite to take on hosting responsibilities was Celebrity Big Brother winner Rylan Clark who was apparently 'snubbed' by ITV for the role.

AJ Odudu is known for co-presenting Big Brother's Bit On The Side alongside Rylan and even hosted Married At First Sight.

Will Best has similarly hosted a number of programmes such as ITV's Dance Dance Dance and Celebrity Coach Trip on E4.

Big Brother continues on ITV2 and ITVX every day from tonight (Sunday, October 8).
