Channel 5 has released the first look at this year's Big Brother .

The new eye is a split version that gives a hint that the show will be merged with its more famous sister show, Celebrity Big Brother , with the bold colours striking through the eye.

It was previously reported that Celebrity Big Brother and the civilian version of the show could be coming together this summer to create a MEGASHOW – with celebrities and normal folk all living under one roof.

An insider from the show told Now magazine: “We’re planning on really mixing up the regular series this time by chucking in a load of celebs too and splitting the house up.

“The producers have been approaching people from Gogglebox , TOWIE and Ex On The Beach and have some great names lined up.”

The show’s producers are always fans of a shake up and a twist to keep viewers watching, but this reported idea is certainly different.

Now claims that civilians and celebs would live in different areas of the house – and come together in a communal area.

Because those celebrities could NEVER slum it with the normals.

Though how we’d tell the difference between the normal fame-hungry contestants and some of the celebrity Z listers is anyone’s guess.

The reported plans might cause issues with pay, though – as celebrities get huge fees to appear , whereas your average Joe doesn’t get paid to be on the show.

We can’t wait to find out if this will happen.

A Big Brother rep told us: “We don’t comment on rumour or speculation.”
