Big Brother is set to make a triumphant return to our television screens.
The hit reality series, which ran between 2000-2018, gave us some truly outrageous and iconic moments as a group of strangers were forced to cohabit in the Big Brother house – while we watched their every move.
It’s been confirmed that Big Brother will be back for autumn 2023, and the wheels are already in motion as auditions to become a housemate have opened.
Airing on ITV2 and ITVX in the New Year, the new series will feature ‘carefully selected housemates from all walks of life’ that will set up home for ‘up to six weeks’.
So how can you apply to be part of the action?
Here’s what we know.
