The time has finally come!
After a 5-year hiatus, Big Brother is back with a bang. The reboot kicked off on ITV and Virgin Media One last night with brand new hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best.
Viewers were introduced to a brand new house filled with 16 new housemates in the show's most diverse line-up ever. This includes a dancing doctor, a DJ, a banker/former Miss Universe contestant, a Muslim MUA and a stay-at-home mum - a serious mix of personalities!
Last night's opening episode featured a house warming party with classic party games like Pass The Parcel - and the drama set off from there!
Just moments after her arrival, dancer Olivia was in tears after she was put up for eviction this Friday. The 23-year-old is now vulnerable to a public vote thanks to her fellow housemates predicting that she would be the most difficult to live with.
And 25-year-old Jenkin had his suitcase blown up when he was voted as having the worst dress sense.
JENKIN’S SUITCASE EXPLODING WAS MY FAVORITE PART OF THE EPISODE TODAY 😭😭😭 #BBUK pic.twitter.com/q619ZBGlc9

So what's the reaction to the Big Brother reboot been like? Well aside from a lot of people being put out that it was pre-recorded when the first episode is typically live and in person, viewers seem to think Big Brother is back and better than ever.
Trish: I'm very left wing and I hate the Tories.
Henry: I voted Conservative because I want to have a martini with Boris Johnson.

Sorry but I think it's absolutely hilarious that Jenkin has been in the #bbuk house for three minutes and has already lost his suitcase, has to have cold showers and make breakfast in bed and just accidentally nominated someone for eviction. pic.twitter.com/uYIJ87ZA5Y
