We’ve seen tears, tantrums, romance and drama by the absolute bucket-load… and we’re only a couple of weeks in. That can mean only one thing, another series of ‘Big Brother’ is officially underway.
The wide-eyed contestants currently shacked up in Borehamwood’s most famous bungalow are all living one day to the next without knowing what’s around the corner, whether it’s a shock ‘Power Trip’ twist, a nominations surprise or just another slurred argument after someone’s had one too many of those label-less cans of cider.

Some of the housemates from 'BB' years gone by
We’ve no doubt they’re all dreaming of the outside world and their lives outside of the ‘BB’ compound, but while some will be thinking about returning to their loved ones and normal lives, ‘Big Brother’ is now into its fifteenth series so we strongly suspect there are one or two who have fame on their minds, and will be grabbing every red carpet invitation and club appearance they can get their mitts on once they’ve left the house.
Of course, some past housemates have managed to use their new-found platform to their advantage, such as Alison Hammond who’s now an interviewer for ‘This Morning’ or Craig Phillips, who won the very first series of ‘Big Brother’ and put his skills to good use to become a TV builder.
That said, not all ex-housemates have managed to pull off a career in the media quite so successfully, and are still turning up the opening of an envelope despite no one having any idea who they are, or even remember they were on ‘Big Brother’ in the first place.
We thought we’d round up some of the best-loved - or, at least, the most memorable - housemates from series gone by and see what they’ve been doing since they left the ‘BB’ house behind…
