Big Brother 2012: The house

The Big Brother kitchen has marble walls and bronze designer lights while the bedroom is adorned with pictures of sexy can-can girls.

'This year, the house has been given a complete facelift both structurally and aesthetically, combining aspirational sleekness with old school Vegas glamour,' says executive producer Susy Price.

'It may look like a summer paradise but for housemates this will be no holiday.'
