The current Big Brother series airing in the UK is Big Brother 2023, also referred to as Big Brother 20. After ITV acquired the rights to the series in August 2022—nearly four years after its final appearance on Channel 5—it is the first season to be shown on ITV2.
The show debuted on ITV (ITV1 and STV) and ITV2 concurrently on October 8, 2023, with the remaining episodes running exclusively on the latter channel. AJ Odudu and Will Best, who will also front the sister show Big Brother: Late & Live, co-present it.
ITV said that the series would include a new cast of carefully chosen housemates from different walks of life once the show was commissioned. Up to six weeks of the show’s run will be dedicated to “cameras capturing [the housemates’ every move, and the nation following every twist and turn.”
The audience will once more vote during the series to determine who will earn a financial prize and return to shopping tasks, nominations, and live evictions.
The main show has had a long history of hosts, including television personality Emma Willis, 2001 winner Brian Dowling, and Davina McCall. This year’s show will be hosted by two newcomers. Will Best and Aj Odudu, who will also host the Late & Live offshoot, will present it.
The 42-day run will be the shortest in the history of the show and will be broken up into 36 episodes. It will air six nights a week, from Sunday through Friday at 8 p.m., and will be followed at 10 p.m. by the live companion show Big Brother: Late & Live, where the housemates who have been kicked out will conduct their first interviews.

Big Brother (UK) Season 20 Episode 2 Stream Guide
The series premiered on October 8, 2023, with a 90-minute launch special that aired concurrently on ITV1 and ITV2, with the latter station carrying the remainder of the episodes. The housemates moved in front of a live studio audience the day before, on October 7, during the debut episode.
You can watch Big Brother (UK). Season 20 Episode 2 will air on ITV1, ITV2, and ITVX. ITVX, however, will only function in the UK due to geo-restrictions. You won’t be able to utilize ITV’s streaming service if you reside outside of the UK or travel outside of it because it is only accessible to viewers in that country.
The platform will see you as being in the UK rather than wherever you may be if you use VPN software to gain a UK IP address. You only need to run the app through a UK server to get rid of the error message and get around the geo-blockade.
