More details have been released about the next series of Big Brother – and a Blackburn woman has confirmed that she will return as host.

Speaking to her 265,000 Instagram followers, AJ Odudu said she is “so excited” to be back presenting Big Brother UK.

The former St Bede’s High School pupil also revealed that the new logo is a “10 out of 10”.

AJ is set to return as host, alongside Will Best, when the reality television show returns this autumn.

Not much is known about the 2024 series but the new logo features a multi-coloured design.

During the adverts throughout the Love Island 2024 final, ITV showcased the new Big Brother eye in a promo video.

In the clip, colourful paint spills across a yellow background before it forms the show’s signature eye logo.

After a five-year hiatus, the “original social experiment” returned to our screens last year. It was axed by Channel 5 amid a ratings slump in 2018.

Last year, it was won by Jordan Sangha, a former lawyer from Scunthorpe.

Big Brother started in 2000 on Channel 4 before Channel 5 took over in 2011, airing in the UK for a total of 18 years.

ITV also brought back the celebrity edition of the show earlier this year, with reality star David Potts being crowned the winner.

The Ibiza Weekender star beat Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer Nikita Kuzmin to the title, after Coronation Street actor Colson Smith placed third, former X Factor judge Louis Walsh came fourth and TV presenter Fern Britton placed fifth.

The influential social experiment sees housemates live together in a custom-built home for weeks without access to the outside world in a bid to win £100,000, returned last October with 16 new contestants.

A new cast of housemates will take up residence in the newly-refurbished Big Brother house, where you can expect all the nail-biting moments, tricky tasks and live evictions of old.
