ITV confirms when the new series of Big Brother will begin for a new six-week run.

ITV has confirmed that the new series of Big Brother will begin in less than two weeks' time.

The hugely-popular reality show was successfully revived by the broadcaster last year for a six-week series on ITV2, hosted by Will Best and AJ Odudu.

The new run will start on Sunday, October 6 with a live 90-minute launch show as the new crop of housemates enter the famous compound for the first time.

Episodes will then air on ITV2 from Sunday to Friday at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX - meaning that the finale will be broadcast on Friday, November 15.

As with last year, spinoff discussion show Big Brother: Late & Live will follow on ITV2 at either 10pm or 10.30pm, depending on the duration of that's night live show.

Live streaming will then be available after Late & Live until 2am - and on Saturday nights the stream will run from 9pm to 2am.

Last year the launch show was also simulcast live on ITV1, although that will not be the case this year as the channel is scheduled to be showing new drama Joan in the same slot.
