Channel 5 launched their 2012 Celebrity Big Brother show last night and the twelve contestants were finally revealed to the public. From those who entered this famous house, it has been ex-Eastenders actress, Natalie Cassidy, who the bookies fancy as favourite to win in the Celebrity Big Brother Betting 2012.

It’s time for the first ever eviction on Celeb Big Brother 2011 and the unlucky (or lucky housemates, depending on your point of view) ones whose heads are on the voting chopping block are Kerry Katona, Speakers Wife Sally Bercow and male model Bobby Sabel.

The twist to this year’s Big Brother phone voting is that Channel 5 have decided that viewers must call to save their favourite housemate – rather than the C4 version of voting to get the person you like least booted out the house.

And so, it’s back… Big Brother once again invaded our privacy last night as Channel 5 relaunched the show with previous Big Brother winner, Brian Dowling, taking the place of Davina McCall’s tonsils.

Big Brother 2011 crammed it’s house full of celebrities (stretching the definition of the word celebrity a lot here) and straight away got to giving one of the new housemates a secret task.

Ultimate Big Brother betting has gone into meltdown as UBB favourite, Brian Dowling, continues to see his odds of winning Ultimate Big Brother shorten almost hourly. The BB2 winner has been a livewire since entering the house, his latest catchphrase, “Oh no you didn’t”, has turned into a playground mantra and it is hard to see public opinion for Dowling wavering as the competition increases.

Former, Ultimate Big Brother betting favourite, Chantelle, continues to see her odds drift as she pines for former lover, Preston. Her tearful outbursts are obviously beginning to grate on viewers’ nerves. Chantelle, doesn’t really help herself when she comes out with quotes like the following, “I should have had therapy after my divorce, not plastic surgery.” Underlining she has never really come to terms with her breakup from Preston.

At long last this terrible, terrible, TV show will come to an end in 5 days. If ever there has been a show that has surpassed its sell by date – it is this one. Big Brother has produced some great TV in its time, in fact some classic TV moments, however, those seem like a distant memory as this years effort slowly, withers and dies in front of a band of hardcore fans.

In one last gasp of effort, Channel 4 bosses have decided to give the show the twist of a lifetime – with Ultimate Big brother betting. Where some bright spark producer from C4 decided that ‘enough is enough’ and run a quadruple eviction on Friday night to get rid of these deadwood wannabees and then fill the house with a total of 12 housemates from the last ten years of both Big Brother and Celebrity Big Brother. It’s enough to make you weep into your pint.

So, it finally comes to pass. After 10 years of controversy and cult tv moments the Celebrity Big Brother show begins it’s final 27 days of transmission from tonight, Sunday the 3rd of January 2010.

We’ve had some famous faces and many not-so-famous enter the house throughout the years. Who can forget the entrance by Jackie Stallone or MP George Galloway purring cringely like a cat or when fake celebrity Chantelle and lead singer from Ordinary Boy’s, Preston, fell in love on our tv screens. Of course, primarily, Celebrity Big Brother will always be remembered for the race row between the late ‘Jade Goody’ and Bollywood actress, Shilpa Shetty.

And then there were six, well after tonight’s eviction, they’ll be 5 Big Brother housemates left. What with the final looming this Friday (the 4th of September) you can bet none of these pretenders to the throne of BB10 winner will be wanting to be evicted so close to the finishing line. Still, it’s good TV and despite this series of BB being a complete ratings disaster for Channel 4 it’s not really been that bad compared to past BB’s.

Finally, we have new housemates to play with this summer. Big Brother 10 kicked off last Thursday night, when we were introduced to the latest specimens that will be filling our TV and newspaper space over the hopefully up-and-coming balmy summer days and nights. It’s make or break for BB10, with rumours rife that the show may be axed if this year’s current crop of housemates fail to hit the target with the viewing public.

Yep, it’s back. This Friday, the 2nd of January 2009, sees a return to our TV screens of the controversial Celebrity Big Brother show after Channel 4′s decision to axe the show after the racism row involving the infamous Jade Goody. This year the Celebrity Big Brother 2009 producers are not taking any chances by scrapping 24 hour coverage of the show. Channel 4 are hoping the watered down reality TV show will still be a major hit with British audiences.
