BIG Brother bosses are hoping a bright new logo will help bring the fun factor back to the under-fire reality series.

A new series of the show will kick off on June 1 - in the wake of the controversial Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year.

And bosses plan to spice things up with a "caravan of love", in which housemates locked out in the garden are expected to keep each other warm.

Big Brother 8 will also feature a secret garden accessible only via a hidden door.

As the new logo was unveiled yesterday, an insider said: "It is colourful and vibrant with different elements, and that will apply to this new series of Big Brother.

"C4 programming chief Kevin Lygo is conscious of wanting to put the fun back into the show.

"But some housemates will live like kings, while the other half will be stuck outside come rain or shine."

Last year's show saw sparks fly between winner Pete Bennett and Nikki Grahame - while Grace Adams-Short is set to marry housemate lover Mikey Dalton next July.

But in January, Channel 4 chiefs were criticised for failing to protect eventual Celebrity Big Brother winner Shilpa Shetty from bullying at the hands of housemates Jade Goody, Danielle Lloyd and Jo O'Meara.

With C4 desperate to avoid a similar outcry, af ter announcing profits down 70 per cent, producers are taking no chances.

Contestants are under surveillance to ensure they can cope with the pressure of being on Big Brother.
