The channel has given a first look at a new take on the show’s famous eye – this time as an interplanetary orb of luminous colours.

The forthcoming series will have a new feel with different tasks and twists to challenge and surprise the housemates, Channel 5 said.

The current series of Celebrity Big Brother has made headlines after Emmerdale actress Roxanne Pallett accused Coronation Street star Ryan Thomas of punching her. She has since apologised.

Big Brother will begin on Channel 5 at 9pm on September 14.
