E4's Brooker thriller is set in Big Brother house

Charlie Brooker's E4 zombie thriller Dead Set will be set in the Big Brother house.

The production team on the five-part thriller built a set based on the reality show's house and the drama uses many elements of the format.

With the waking dead attacking the living, the Big Brother house becomes one of the few remaining safe houses in the country - but the contestants are unaware of the horror outside.

The five-part series is E4's most expensive drama to date. It will open with a 60-minute episode followed by four 30-minute editions.

It was commissioned by head of E4 Angela Jain and comedy commissioning editor Shane Allen. Brooker and Annabel Jones will executive produce for Zeppotron, with Chrissy Skinns as producer and Secret Diary of a Call Girl's Yann Demange as director.
