It's almost time for the highly-anticipated return of Big Brother and hosts Will Best and AJ Odudu are working hard to make sure they're in tip-top shape for the big launch on Sunday. The British public is eagerly awaiting the arrival of over a dozen new housemates to the iconic ITV2 show, which was revived in 2023 and quickly became a hit for the network.
The premise of the show is simple: contestants are placed in the Big Brother house with no contact with the outside world, all competing for the ultimate prize of £100,000. Will and AJ will be hosting the show from the Garden Studios in London, but it hasn't been smooth sailing for the pair this week. In fact, they've both had some major health scares leading up to the launch.
In an interview with Capital Radio, Will shared that he's been dealing with a stiff neck and has an emergency physio appointment scheduled. But he's staying positive, saying, "It's always good to have a minor setback before the biggest show of the year. It's a good reminder to take care of ourselves." And it seems like AJ is also facing some health complications, as she's lost her voice and has had to cancel some radio appearances.
Despite these challenges, Will is confident that they will both bring their A-game once the cameras start rolling. He admitted to feeling nervous about doing the show justice and how the housemates will fare, but he knows that once the show starts, all the worries will fade away. "I can't wait to meet these people," Will said with excitement.
Speaking of the contestants, it seems like there will be some changes this year. In 2023, the pre-recorded intros for the housemates received mixed reviews from viewers. This year, in an effort to bring back the element of surprise, the show will have a live element, according to a source. This means that anything could happen and it will all be caught on camera for viewers to see.
Fans of the show will also be happy to hear that Big Brother legend Marcus Bentley will be back as the narrator for the 21st series. And while we wait to see who will emerge victorious this year, we can't help but remember last year's winner, lawyer Jordan Sangha. The 26-year-old spent six weeks in the house and walked away with the £100,000 prize.
