Big Brother: Here we go again

The 16 new 2009 contestants have arrived in the new Big Brother house.

The new set – which has been billed as the biggest yet – features a sumptuous bathroom with gold statues and blue velvet sofas.

But it's built right next to the lounge.

There’s a huge window between the bathroom and the lounge and in the garden, the central swimming pool makes a return – as does a giant oversized ashtray.

The bright red kitchen area is also ultra modern.

But the dormitory-style shared bedroom is more basic, with budget single beds and filing cabinets instead of cupboards.
