The much-anticipated reboot of reality TV show Big Brother will hit screens on October 8th, ITV has confirmed.
The broadcaster announced Big Brother: The Launch will air on October 8 at 9pm on ITV1, ITV2 and ITVX.
“Big Brother: Late & Live will be the only place to watch the evictee’s 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,” ITV teased in an official synopsis.
Those seeking even more Big Brother action can also follow the official live stream exclusively on ITVX, available seven nights a week after Big Brother: Late & Live has aired with “the opportunity to watch live footage into the small hours”.

Big Brother originally ran on Channel 4, launching in 2000. After 11 years with the network, the show transferred to Channel 5 in 2011 for a further eight series and 15 Celebrity Big Brother editions.
The show went on hiatus in 2018, before ITV acquired the rights to the show in August 2022. It will be the first time Big Brother has returned to UK screens in almost five years.
