SURELY a house filled with cameras would put most of us off feeling frisky, right? Wrong.
I was the first person in the new house and there are some serious signs the original reality series is poised for
And I say that having been to the villa many times – so trust me when I say: this is one amorous abode.
For starters, there are certain design choices to make sure the celebs get nice and cosy.
Everything is smaller – the entire space, the dining room table, the sofa – so the likes of and will be skimming thighs and rubbing shoulders every time Big Brother gathers them together.
Then there’s the bedroom, with only a on offer.
Until evictions start to whittle away the housemates they will be forced to cuddle up – and it’ll make it much easier for any celebrities who might choose to sneak under the sheets together to crack on.
But the surest sign yet that Big Brother is hoping to turn up the heat is the “sex den”; off the garden.
It’s a brand new feature which offers total privacy for any couples.
There’s a double-depth L-shaped sofa which two people can easily lie on – trust me, I tried it – and there’s even blackout windows meaning anyone hiding inside can feel like they’re having a private moment.
They’re not, obvs, cos all of us at home will be standing by to catch the action, but so long as the sexy stars like and thinkthey’re out the spotlight, they’ll feel much more inclined to succumb to any, ahem, urges.
Plus, soon the elves will have filled the storeroom with essentials – which always includes a stash of condoms.
In fact, in scenes that didn't make the main show but featured on the live stream, cheeky housemates in Big Brother's civilian 2023 series blew up some condoms and wore them on their heads during one raucous party.
The bathroom will also be filled with toiletries, including foaming bubble bath for the luxury tub.
It's a big, circular bath that sits on a raised plinth and has more than enough space for two people.
That’s not where it ends though.
The real driving force behind Celebrity Big Brother’s sex factor ahead of tonight’s launch is the bossman himself.
I chatted to him in the Diary Room and he confessed that he’d love to see some “heavy petting”; in the .
He said: “Big Brother always encourages heavy petting, except in a public swimming bath.
“But in the hot tub? That is fine.”;
I might not be a celebrity, nor a housemate, but it sounds like a clear order to me.
Let the bubbly fun commence.
