Celebrity Big Brother's Bit on the Side is returning
There's been a lot of speculation surrounding the upcoming (and last?) series of Celebrity Big Brother – and some of it has been somewhat worrying for fans.
But if you were starting to fear for the fate of Celebrity Big Brother's staple spin-off Bit on the Side, you needn't, because the show is officially returning!
BOTS presenter and Celebrity Big Brother favourite Rylan Clark-Neal confirmed the news on Twitter today (August 7), also revealing that they were scouting for audience members.
"COME AND SEE US," he shouted. So, don't just sit there and moan about the contestants on your sofa, do as the man says and do it on telly instead!
