And here's all the details!
So, as you know, Channel 4 dropped Big Brother last year and the show ended with Series 11 and a special series which saw Brian Dowling crowned The Ultimate Housemate. There were plenty of tears and if you want to re-live it, just search for Ultimate Big Brother right here on the blog.
There were plenty of rumor and speculation that other channels might pick it up and to be quite honest I didn't think it would ever happen, but now I've been proven wrong, and Channel 5 have picked up the show in a 2 year deal with creators Endemol.
An 'all star' celebrity series will run for 4 weeks this coming August! Producers have set their sights on the likes of Amy Childs, former Big Brother stars and an odd choice of Charlie Sheen.
After that, a normal series will start in September with members of the public going into the house.
Another celebrity series will run in January followed by another normal series in the Summer, back to how Channel 4 did it.
It's also rumoured that the 24/7 live feed will return after Channel 4 cut it last year to save costs.
A presenter for the show has not been announced yet, but Davina McCall has ruled herself out. Favourites to get the job include Emma Willis who presented Big Brother's Little Brother last year, Ultimate Housemate Brian Dowling and Vanessa Feltz.
It is unknown if the voice of Big Brother, Marcus Bentley will return to tell us what day it is and what the time is.
It's also been rumoured that the prize fund will increased from £100,000 to £500,000! Wow.
So what do you BB fans think then? Will you watch it? Who do you want to present it? Will it be the same? Let me know!
