Sources are denying claims that Big Brother UK is set to be axed, despite reports to the contrary.
The show was relaunched in 2011 on Channel 5, after originally running for eleven series on Channel 4.
Big Brother was also a major contributing factor to Channel 5 landing the best ratings in 13 years in 2016, with the celebrity edition accounting for 39 of its top-50 programmes.
The current series of Celebrity Big Brother is still on air, featuring the likes of Made in Chelsea’s Ashley James, Ru Paul’s Drag Race star Courtney Act, pop star Ginuwine, and politician Ann Widdecombe.
