As 2018 pokes its head around the corner, so does a brand new year of reality TV, which kicks off - as always - with a brand new series of โCelebrity Big Brotherโ.
Following the head of Channel 5โฒs admission that he wasnโt exactly thrilled with the way things were going in the world of โBig Brotherโ, bosses have decided to shake things up a bit this time around.
Although only time will tell whether producersโ risk will pay off, hereโs everything you need to know about the new series of โCBBโ in the run-up to launch night...
When does โCelebrity Big Brotherโ start?
The 21st (!) series will launch live on Channel 5 at 9pm on Tuesday 2 January.
Whoโs hosting?
As always, Emma Willis has announced that sheโll be taking on presenting duties for the launch, as well as the live evictions and final.
And what about โBit On The Sideโ?
Fear not, despite announcing recently that he was taking a break from his presenting stint on โThis Morningโ, Rylan Clark-Neal is confirmed to be back for madcap spin-off show โCelebrity Big Brotherโs Bit On The Sideโ.
He says: โWeโre such a family [at โBOTSโ] and you need to love โBig Brotherโ to work on โBit On The Sideโ. We have the most fun making the show and I have even more presenting it.โ
Whatโs the theme?
The theme for this yearโs series has already drawn plenty of media attention, with producers launching with an all-female line-up, supposedly to commemorate the 100 year anniversary of women winning the vote here in Britain.
Emma Willis said: โItโs hugely important that itโs being celebrated! Itโs about learning the differences we all have and more importantly the similarities.โ
However, the house wonโt remain all-female for long, as producers plan to gradually introduce men over the course of the series, with the specific intention of โchallenging gender stereotypes and reveal fascinating truths about what it is to be a woman - and man - in the 21st centuryโ.
Can we see the house?
Oh, go on, thenโฆ
And what about the eye?
For the first time since the show jumped ship to Channel 5 in 2011, producers have gone back to the drawing board with this yearโs eye logo.
Rather than the cartoon-ish eye featured in recent years, which was repeatedly redesigned depending on the theme of the series, this time theyโve used a more realistic womanโs eye, coinciding with the female-led line-up.
Who are the rumoured housemates?
Usually by this time of year the full line-up of the January series is starting to take shape, but there have actually only been a few rumours about the ladies who are Borehamwood-bound in 2018.
Among the rumoured housemates are Ultimo founder Michelle Mone, journalist India Willoughby, โTattoo Fixersโ star Paisley Billings and Laura Simpson, who made headlines when she was snapped in a car with Wayne Rooney earlier this year.
Meanwhile, rumours have begun circulating about the men who will be dropping by later in the show, with controversial โLove Islandโ contestant Jonny Mitchell, โTOWIEโ cast member Pete Wicks and plastic surgery devotee Rodrigo Alves frequently being mentioned.
