Davina and Rylan have both selected their favourite moments from their homes during lockdown, and these will be played out as part of the show.

Davina McCall told the publication: "I lived and breathed Big Brother for 11 years.

"Not one week goes by when I don’t quote Big Brother in some form.

"It made me laugh, it made me cry and it taught me to never judge a book by its cover.

"I love the show and can’t wait to share it with a whole new audience."
