Plot

Contestants on Big Brother face the ultimate challenge: surviving long enough to navigate the drama, win over the public vote, and ultimately emerge as the champion. Winning the show can be life-changing, as victors not only gain immense public attention but also take home a cash prize of £100,000. 

However, as previous seasons have demonstrated, you don’t need to win to become a true Big Brother star; many contestants have found fame and success regardless of their final standing in the competition.
