Big Brother 2026 - The Diary Room Chair / © ITV
This year’s Big Brother Diary Room chair has been revealed ahead of the new series starting this Sunday.
The show is returning for its fourth series of the ITV era for a run of almost eight weeks – the longest since the broadcaster revived the format in 2023.
The Diary Room chair always plays host to some of BB‘s most iconic moments – including rants, revelations, secret twists and the weekly nominations.
The new chair is relatively modest compared to 2025’s multi-coloured chair, featuring an overall eye design in multiple shades of red. Like last year, a human-like eye forms the centre-piece of the chair.
Referencing the ‘theme’ of the new series, an official synopsis reads: “Reimagined as a house of surprises, this year’s Big Brother house will keep Housemates on their toes with unexpected twists and game-changing moments around every corner.”
Big Brother returns with a live launch show this Sunday at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
