Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack kicks off on Channel 4 at 9pm tonight

Are they the celebs? I haven't heard of any of them:smt102

I have never heard of any of them either. Never watch the programme, would not give it the time of day.

They have really pulled out the stops to get big names this time ?!! But in saying that I will probably get hooked again, there goes the house work for another few weeks!

Right i've just had another read.....

The ones listed are the housemates
But i think celebrities are going to run the house, give out the orders etc. Its not saying what celebs though!

Celebrity's will take on the role of Big Brother with Little Britain’s Matt Lucas going first.

The rest of the series will feature Jimmy Carr, Jake and Dinos Chapman, Keith Lemon, Malcolm McLaren, Joan Rivers, Brian Sewell and Ian Wright.

Still don't know half the names, but matt lucas might be quite good.

wow some huge celebs there shame i aint got a clue who any are

I think I heard that they're not so much famous but talented in their field, I may be wrong though, not that I'll be watching it

Me neither Lise (see right again!!!!!!! I've definitely got it now haven't I!!!! )

There might be some hope - when Jimmy Carr's in charge perhaps?! He's a good laugh!

So, not so much of a 'Celebrity' Big Brother then ?? !! They really are scraping the bottom of the barell !
