The October 10 episode of Big Brother UK was pure chaos wrapped in prime time TV. Just when everyone thought they knew the game, the show hit the reset button. Cameron B became the third housemate to pack his bags, but the real bombshell came right after.

Big Brother UK hosts Will Best and AJ Odudu dropped a twist so wild it could’ve been pulled straight from a soap opera: Two evicted contestants are marching right back into the house. It is the kind of shake-up that promises more drama, more alliances, and probably a few dramatic diary room tears.

With four housemates already gone in one way or another, this twist might just turn the whole season upside down, again.


How does this surprise Big Brother UK twist work? Details explored

The Big Brother UK hosts announced immediately following Cameron B's eviction from the house. Will and AJ presented the unexpected news to the remaining participants and television audiences simultaneously.

According to their statement, two late entries would arrive the following Friday. These people would not be typical newbies, but rather returning contenders from previous stages of the tournament. The hosts preserved the aura of suspense by refusing to divulge which past residents would be making a return. Speculation among fans began immediately, with viewers attempting to anticipate who might return.

The complexity of the twist extended beyond simply bringing back eliminated contestants. AJ explained that the regular voting process would be disrupted for the upcoming week. Housemates would nominate each other as standard on Monday, but viewers would face a different decision than usual.

Rather than voting for an elimination, the audience would select one nominee to be "fake evicted" from the house. This person would then be transported to a concealed room away from the main group. The selected housemate would not spend this time alone. They would join the two returning contestants in the hidden space, giving them a unique vantage point.

From their secret location, the trio would observe the daily activities unfolding in the main house. Will elaborated on additional complications built into the scheme. Big Brother UK would issue covert assignments to the three sequestered participants. These tasks were designed to introduce unpredictability and tension into the ongoing competition.

The presenter emphasised that the trio would engage in mischievous behaviour once they eventually rejoined their housemates. He stressed that the show's format was fundamentally shifting to accommodate these changes.


What do the experts think?

Panelist David Potts praised the initiative, declaring it embodied the essence of what Big Brother represents. His colleague Bradley Riches was concerned about the possible disruption of group connections and dynamics.

Officials confirmed that prior Celebrity Big Brother participants and winners will be barred from competing. The source from which the returning housemates would be chosen is unknown, leaving open the potential of drawing from numerous seasons of the show.


Big Brother UK airs nightly on ITV2 and streams on ITVX in the UK.
