Celebrity Big Brother – Season 20
Episodes
Live Launch
As one door closes, another one opens. No sooner has Channel 5 crowned its latest Big Brother winner, it reopens the house to make way for a fresh batch of contestants – but this time, of course, the new reality residents are all famous faces. Cue a roll call of soap actors, reality stars and glamour models, with the odd Loose Women presenter and US star thrown in for good measure. As always, Emma Willis introduces each one as they enter, ready to have their every word and move recorded for the enjoyment of the viewing public. It’s to be hoped BB fans don’t have anything else planned for the next few weeks.
Day 1
Highlights from launch night as a fresh group of familiar faces make their way down the staircase into the house that for some will be their home for the next few weeks. Big Brother will also no doubt have a surprise or two up his sleeve for the new arrivals. How will these stars cope with being told what to do?
Day 2
Highlights of the new housemates' first full day in the Big Brother house. The celebrities may be used to staring down a lens as part of their working lives, but Big Brother's 24-hour spy-like devices are not the TV, movie and paparazzi cameras they are used to facing. It remains to be seen who is playing up for the benefit of the viewing public and who is taking a more laid-back approach to their public incarceration.
Day 3
A chance to catch up with the latest events inside the house as the celebrities cope with living under constant surveillance, with all the arguments and alliances, as well as the revelations in the diary room.
Day 4
Highlights of the residents' past 24 hours under the all-seeing eye of Big Brother, as they try to get used to their housemates' quirks and foibles while also coping with the day-to-day complications of life inside the house.

A chance to catch up with the latest events inside the house as the celebrities cope with living under constant surveillance, with all the arguments and alliances, as well as the revelations in the diary room.
