The latest series of Big Brother is edging ever-closer, and now the theme of the new house design has been unveiled.

While the last two series of Celebrity Big Brother followed a UK vs USA and Vaudeville theme, the main summer series will be all about paranoia.

A description of the new series says: “From Day One the Housemates will be under attack from an unseen ominous dark force that will have a dramatic and divisive effect on the House.

“Whilst things may appear to be straight forward Big Brother will ensure that no-one will have the entire picture. There may even be deeper connections at work?

“The Housemates are not alone and they should be prepared for paranoia and suspicion.

“Viewers should prepare for a ‘yin and yang’ style force to evolve Big Brother for a new generation.”

The fact that the housemates are ‘not alone’ could be significant – the current rumour is that the standard Big Brother and Celebrity Big Brother series will be merged, with celebs living secretly in a brand new area of the house alongside contestants from the general public.

In keeping with the new shattered-glass eye logo, the latest house makeover will reflect “a slick, stark monochrome world” – will it be worth going into the belly of the beast for that £100,000 prize money?

A start date for the new series hasn’t yet been announced – but there shouldn’t be too much longer to wait.
