Twelve housemates are ready to wreak havoc on ITV’s most famous house, but Big Brother has returned for another season with a lineup that is more upbeat than ever.

Big Brother returned to ITV this evening as 12 new housemates entered into through the iconic abode for the first time, ready to live in close quarters for the next seven weeks. While the social experiment usually sees a variety of people from different age ranges, backgrounds, ethnicities and genders, this year’s cohort are a noticably young bunch.
In fact, only two of the housemates are not in their twenties, with the rest of the group ranging from 18 to 27; Pizza Shop Manager Gani, 39, and PR company owner Caroline, 56, are the exception. The latter decided to go on the show after struggling to know which direction to take her career in, and says she’d like a pair of new patio doors if she won the show’s prize pot, which is often £100,000.
While Gani is hoping for both fame and fortune, as he says: “I’d like to be known by millions. I see this as an opportunity not only for my personal growth, but also to help build the future of my personal brand.” He might get some tips from his fellow housemates, as one is already known online as an influencer and content creator.

Elsa Rae, age 21, is renowned for having influencer status and has over 120,000 TikTok followers. She is also known for having a close relationship with Ed Matthews, a social media personality.
From Jojo Siwa and Chris Hughes to Jordan Sangha and Henry Southan, Big Brother has produced plenty of in-house romances over the years.
And with hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best recently admitting they get invested in the show’s relationships, this series could be one to rival Love Island with it’s young and beautiful cast.
Alongside Essex girl Elsa, 18-year-old Teja was another one to enter the Big Brother house during the live launch show, and is this year’s youngest contestant this year. With a goal of winning the show and buying her own house, Teja says she might have some crossed words in the house.
“I think I’m alright to live with, but I can be a bit loud. I do also say what’s on my mind. If I have a problem I will say. Sopeople might take that the wrong way and see it as me being rude. But I do like to just get things off my chest; people might not like the directness of it,” says Teja, who describes herself as “loud”.
Although both Farmer Cameron and Marcus, a mechanical engineer, are 22 years old, there are no greater differences. The former is hoping that Marcus’ genuine charm will pique people’s interest while Marcus has been given the advice to “play the game” and says he’s looking forward to “a new experience.”
With a lot of early morning workouts and plenty of opportunities for making new friends, Sam, a 27-year-old Zumba instructor, says: “I’m looking forward to making new friends, hopefully learning some new life skills, and seeing what things come out of this experience.
Emily, a 25-year-old political events manager, hopes to win over her male counterparts and play the game in the house. “I haven’t really thought about a strategy, despite the fact that I think people will see me and think I’m very sexy because of my blonde hair and fake nails,” she said.
“So,I think that could definitely play to my advantage, because they better watch out! I’m actually a lot cleverer,” she says. Emily shot to fame when she was falsely accused of flinging a milkshake at Nigel Farage.
Jenny, 20, from Derry says she wants to “provide the house with plenty of craic,” something she’ll undoubtedly connect with Glasweigen Nancy, 22, over. Tate, 27, is the second Scottish housemate of the year, and he claims that he will be entertaining with plenty of other skills up his sleeve.
Tate, a personal trainer, claims he doesn’t care about anything else and is just trying to make “one good friend” in the house. Although I have my opinions, I don’t want to be in a position where someone might nominate me.
“I’m going to talk it out in those circumstances.” I believe that there might be other reasons for me to be nominated besides food (or lack thereof). I can become extremely agitated. The South London native said, “That might appeal to people.”
At 9 p.m., Big Brother airs on ITV2 and ITVX every night.
