Big Brother fans celebrate the return of iconic show segment and gush they’ve ‘missed it so much’ as ​​the new series kicks off

Big Brother returned to ITV on Sunday with a whole host of new housemates.

Hosts AJ Odudu, 36, and Will Best, 39, were also back on the nations screens, as sixteen new strangers walked into the custom-built house, ready to take on the six week social experiment.

However it wasn’t just the return of the legendary series that had people talking – as some viewers couldn’t contain their excitement about something very specific that also happened during the live show.

Following the huge success of last year’s reboot, fashion brand Vinted also returned as the headline sponsor – along with their iconic adverts – which prompted a flurry of tweets within minutes of the show starting.

Typically focusing on the benefits of using Vinted to buy and sell second-hand fashion, the ad breaks sees everyday people showing how easy it is to list or buy items, highlighting the convenience and eco-friendliness of the platform.

Fans quickly took to X – formerly known as Twitter – to share their thoughts on the returning ads and penned:

‘them having the same vinted ads fr has transported me to 1am on like a random tuesday in october 2023 feeling v nostalgic rn #bbuk’

‘i’ve missed the vinted ads so much #bbuk’

‘realizing them gonna make a solid £17 in the next 6 weeks because the vinted ads are back! #BBUK’

‘the vintage ads are back #bbuk’

‘why are the vinted ads and the theme song making me emotional #bbuk’

‘I love how we’re all feeling nostalgic about the Vinted ads #BBUK’

Yay it’s the same Vinted adverts as last year #bbuk

‘I love how the Vinted ads are still the same #BBUK’

‘OH HOW IVE MISSED THE VINTED AD #BBUK’

It comes after viewers labeled housemate Nathan, 24, a ‘walking ick’ after he revealed he was once King Charles’ butler before becoming a pork salesman in his native Scotland.

With his long golden blonde locks, viewers were quick to point out his resemblance to the Shrek character, Prince Charming.

During his video introduction he also said he ‘admired’ Nigel Farage and was a ‘right leaning voter’.

Asked what kind of housemate he’ll be Nathan said: ‘I will bring a lot of opinions. I like to have a spirited debate.

‘I’m quite a strong character. If I think something’s wrong, I’ll call it out as being wrong – I’m not afraid to do that’.

Viewers were treated to a glimpse of the Big Brother house earlier this week, which has had a psychedelic makeover since the last series.

With bold new color keep and revamped interior, housemates will enjoy luxurious kitchen and a jacuzzi, as well as a very unique diary room chair.

For the show’s second run on ITV2, the chair has had a huge revamp and taken on a very vibrant new look to match the rest of the house.

Looking like it’s been drenched in paint, it follows a rainbow color scheme of yellow, pink, orange, red, and blue.

It features a soft blue seat and the splattered paint dramatically extends onto the floor for this year’s piece of furniture.

It comes after last year’s Big Brother chair was shaped like an eye, boasting an orange seat, and accents of red and blue.

As contestants entered the new house they were met with a neon orange and yellow staircase featuring giant paint splatters as they take their first steps inside.

Meanwhile, the new living room follows a bright orange and red theme, with a huge yellow sofa where all the new housemates will be gossiping this weekend.

The bathroom has also undergone a transformation with the old blue sea-theme swapped out in favor of deep green and hot pinks, with a circular bathtub.

Elsewhere, the kitchen features the same layout, with a huge breakfast bar in the center, but the old white brick work has been covered with blue tiles and a matching circular bar now stands in the middle, with gold accents.

Big Brother continues on Monday at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
