Stop all the clocks and don your mourning weeds — Celebrity Big Brother is nearly over. But will anyone notice? This brightly-plumed cawing parrot of a reality series never really captures imaginations, not any more, despite C5’s best efforts to jazz it up with gimmicks. Or this year, jazz it down with the introduction of a sinister basement where housemates existed on leftovers from their glittery cousins living the high life upstairs.
Celebrity Big Brother is always troubling and unpleasant, but steady viewing figures of two million or so will doubtless convince C5 that it’s a winner. So whether you watch with disdain or you’re an obsessive, this is the night we discover which “celebrity” will inherit Julian Clary’s crown.
About this programme
23/23. After three weeks of nominations, tasks and evictions, the nail-biting moment has arrived for Rylan, Ryan, Speidi, Claire and Razor as Brian Dowling whittles them down one by one until this year's winner is known. Plus, highlights of the last full day, which sees unexpected tears when the housemates sit down to their final dinner together. Last in the series.
