AJ Odudu and Will Best on this special series of Big Brother

Big Brother is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year and hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best are determined to deliver the most blockbuster series yet.

The duo began hosting the show in 2023 — but already they've shown they have the chemistry, quick wit and cool professionalism needed to steer one of TV's most unpredictable formats. From live eviction chaos to red-hot diary room drama, AJ and Will have handled it all with ease — and a laugh or two along the way.

Now, as Big Brother hits a quarter of a century milestone, the hosts are back with bigger plans, bolder outfits and even an extra week of reality TV gold...

Hi! Do you hope for another romance this year like Jordan Sangha and Henry Southan?

Will: We never saw that coming but it was so sweet to watch. I even joked with my fiancée about wanting to go to their wedding! Sadly, they've split now but it shows how invested we get. If JoJo [Siwa] and Chris [Hughes] don’t last, I genuinely don’t know what I'll do.

Why is this series of Big Brother so special?

AJ: Because we're in our 25th year - 25 years of Big Brother - and we get to host it. That's a huge privilege and honour.

Will: Plus, we've got an extra week this year - seven weeks in total - to get to know what will no doubt be our new favourite people to watch. So bring on the housemates, bring on seven weeks, and bring on a happy 25th anniversary to Big Brother!
