Now, with less than one week remaining until the fresh series begins, presenters Will Best and AJ Odudu have discussed all matters Big Brother, including the possible comeback of recognisable personalities.
AJ confessed she’d welcome seeing “our queen” Nadia [Almada] return to the house alongside Victor [Ebuwa], whom she claimed would “bring the audience in on his game playing antics”.
For Will, it would be the “successful” Anthony Hutton.
The presenters acknowledged they were aware of “nothing” regarding Big Brother’s intended schemes, though they suspected it would prove a “hot watch”. AJ remarked: “Regardless of the mood or energy, its going to a hot watch.”
Will continued: “I do have a suspicion that Big Brother is going to be maybe even more mischievous.
“I know we always say this but I promise you, we know nothing currently. But he’s going to be isn’t he. I feel like every series so far has been getting more and more confident in his own ability to break people. I think it’s going to be fun.”

However, host AJ expressed her one “disappointment” when it comes to the housemates. She added: “I think what’s really fun to see in a housemate is just someone who is authentic with themselves.
“Whether it’s someone I’d want hang out with or not, I think it’s always interesting to see someone who is laying it all out, that’s what I want to see, that’s what I hope to see. Someone who doesn’t hold back.
“I always am disappointed by the housemates who feel like they are coasting through, I’m like let’s go, you’re in there, it’s a once in lifetime opportunity, give it some sauce.”
Speaking about his ideal housemate, Will added: “Honesty, an element of fierceness, a journey is always key isn’t it, you want somebody who is going to go in there with strongly held convictions and maybe you see them change some of those ideas and convictions before your very eyes.”

Big Brother has remained tight lipped on what to expect with the new series, however Will and AJ said as well as a new eye, there “might be a new diary room chair.”
As well as a fresh cast and revamped appearance, AJ will once more showcase some iconic new ensembles, though for the presenter, certain outfits may present some challenges. Speaking openly about one of the hurdles she encounters as a Big Brother host, she quipped: “At the end of the day it’s live television.
“We’re on air for just under three hours and so for me, sometimes the difficulty is holding myself in a latex catsuit without going to the bathroom, sometimes that’s really challenging.
“People are watching at home and I’m like guys, my bunions are crying this latex is pulling at me, i’m dehydrated and I’m keeping the chats and the good vibes going, it’s harder than it looks.”
