After a two year absense Celebrity Big Brother returns to the UK this month as eleven household names (well, in their own households!) move in for three weeks.
As usual, the celebrities will be living in the same house as used in the last series, but with a few modification to make it both Winter proof – and celeb proof!
First up, the bathroom. The bath is now slightly bigger and has steps, while the shower is enclosed for extra privacy. The blue has been ditched in favour of a classier red look:


The two bedrooms remain from BB9, with speculation that the celebs will also be divided into Heaven and Hell. The luxury bedroom now has a luxury couch to recline on, while B-block is made slightly less hellish with thicker mattresses:


Little has changed in the main living area except for the addition of a couple of exercise bikes:

However, outside it’s a different story with a complete new look for the garden. The nominations pod and ashtray remain, but the pool is gone – replaced by three carousel horses, while a new “ice-cube” seating area has been introduced:



And also returning for Celebrity Big Brother is the new improved Jail, complete with luxury bedding and en-suite facilities:


Celebrity Big Brother begins with the live launch show on Friday and continues nightly for the next three weeks. Rumoured housemates include Michael Jackson’s sister La Toya, mini-me Verne Troyer, rapper Coolio and a mixture of UK television and music personalities, including TV presenters Ulrika Johnson and Terry Christian and Shameless actress Tina Malone, aka Mimi Maguire.
