The date when Celebrity Big Brother 2014 starts on TV has been confirmed by Channel 5 this afternoon.

Celebrity Big Brother 2014 begins on MONDAY, August 18 on Channel 5.

The new celebrity series will follow almost straight after the final of Big Brother 2014, with just a three day rest between the two shows.

The current BBUK show will end at 9PM on August 15.

The new series of CBB is set to see quite a mixed cast… and some of the more usual types of ‘celebrity’ housemates.

A number of stars have been repeatedly linked to the show, including Gladiator star Tornado – real name David McIntosh – and MisFits’ Lauren Socha.

There’s also set to be yet another TOWIE star in the form of Lauren Goodger and another writer with Julie Burchill having reportedly been offered a £300,000 deal.

Also rumoured are Gogglebox’s George Gilbey, Hollywood star Gary Busey, The Hills turned Made In Chelsea cast member Stephanie Pratt and most recently, Corrie actor Michael Le Vell.

They’re all set to enter the same Power themed house when the show starts, running for just over three weeks until September.

They've three days to decontaminate the house before CBB then. Hope its true about Julie Burchill. 

There's an hour of streaming most nights at midnight on Channel 5 after CBBBOTS.

Whoooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh

YAY ! ! ! !

I'm off work on Fri AND Sat

I don't know any of those apart from LaVell ....but as I posted on their FB site ...they might as well tell us who the CBB winner is now , and save us all the bother of watching  

I can't see Julie Burchill on there (beneath her, I would have thought), but if she is, I won't be watching for the sake of my blood pressure.

I don't think she'd translate well to BB, and can't see her doing it either Cologne. Mind you it IS a lot of dosh... 

hasn't that corrie bloke just been in rehab. .don't think BB is the place to go after that sort of treatment.. you need calm and relaxation not pressure cooker.. 

Phew! not long to go now then...*legsssssssssssssssss it*

That'll be why they want him 

Meltdowns bring good ratings.

Both Paul Daniels and his wife Debbie McGee have been linked to the new Celebrity Big Brother 2014 line up.

With just days to go until the new series kicks off on Channel 5, the pair have reportedly had last minute talks to take part in the show.

It’s the latest in a string of the reality shows for the 76-year-old TV magician and his glamorous assistant wife.

They’ve previously competed in everything from a celebrity version of The X Factor to Channel 4′s Wife Swap.

A supposed source told The Sun newspaper today: “They’re very excited to be going in together — they’d never have considered doing it separately.

“Paul and Debbie are perfect for Big Brother. They’re great fun, big personalities and don’t take themselves too seriously.”

Ahhhh @mrjamieeast, I wonder if they'll bring the Alsatian in for a task! pic.twitter.com/CtZTjAkGXI

Who are these people? 

and I can't stand Paul Daniels either. .tho he is at least a more traditonal type of celebrity

I also have no idea who those girls are, Olly.

Not keen on Paul Daniels and Debbie McGee, but at least I know who they are.

I have read of Dee woman in Magaluf ,sounds a right clown ...winner then

See no need to watch

 More than likely.

Julie Birchill is vile hope she's not on it..
