Big Brother's Little Brother is set to return, when Big Brother itself re-launches this August.
Fans of the sister show had been concerned that Channel 5 wouldn't bring it back, but Celebritain.com have learned that plans are being drawn up for the show to be broadcast on Channel 5 in a nightly 7pm slot.
A source told us "Channel 5 will pull out all the stops to ensure Big Brother is a hit. Channel 4 shoved BBLB on to its digital channel E4, but it will be broadcast on Channel 5 and not 5* as some may have thought.
There will be more live streaming on 5* though, because (Richard) Desmond wants to establish that channel as a rival to ITV2 and E4".
Producers at Endemol plan to screen-test Brian
Dowling in the presenting role, after he impressed them as a stand-in host on Live From Studio Five and OK! TV.
Emma Willis is top of the list to host the main show, unless they can lure one of the bigger names on their list, which includes Cat Deeley.
