Channel 5 has unveiled the new 'eye logo' for next year's Celebrity Big Brother.
The new logo sees the 'pupil' of the eye formed of a moon, with the outline of the eye covered in twisted vines. The logo is entirely black and dark blue, to fit with the menacing "twisted fairytale" theme of the upcoming series.
The reality show returns to the channel in January and the house will have "whimsical elements that conjure up a magical atmosphere full of possibility and curiosity" - although there will also be hints at something more sinister lurking in the shadows.
Although the identities of next year's contestants are yet to be revealed, Calum Best, Patsy Kensit and The X Factor's Stevi Ritchie are among those who have been rumoured to appear on the show.
Gary Busey won the September 2014 series of the show, with boxer Audley Harrison finishing in second place.

Stephanie Pratt has said that she's suffered "the worst betrayal" from her fellow Celebrity Big Brother housemates Edele Lynch and George Gilbey.
During Celebrity Big Brother's Bit On The Side, host Rylan Clark noted that Pratt looked as if she was "chewing a wasp" when talk turned to Lynch and Gilbey kissing under the sheets during the live final.
The Made in Chelsea star said: "I'm obviously a very bad judge of character. Edele's my best friend and so is George...
"I'm embarrassed for Edele because she has kids and she's just separated," she went on to say.

Pratt responded: "I actually said I love you as a friend, you said 'I love you' and we'd see in five years. The night I left, you got into Edele's bed.

The Celebrity Big Brother housemates paid tribute to one another at their final supper last night.
Audley Harrison was the first to stand and told James Jordan that they have "battled" a lot - though now he has "come to respect" his rival.
"[I'm] still trying to understand you but I definitely think you've got a good heart in there," he continued. "A lot of what you do is tongue in cheek and you're an okay guy."
The next person to give a toast was White Dee, who chose to direct her comments towards Gary Busey - or, as she put it, "Big Man Mr Busey".
"I'd only ever seen you on the big screen, while watching my movies," She said. "Very starstruck when I came in. It's a pleasure to sit and talk to you and listen to you and learn from you. You're an absolute font of all knowledge.

Whatever George Gilbey puts in his aftershave, we want some.
The Gogglebox star is at it again, it seems, as he was seen getting extremely cosy under the sheets with Edele Lynch last night (September 11).
"You haven't over seasoned yourself," Edele cooed to George in reference to his mystery love potion.
"I have a little bit. Am I still smelling?" he asked. She replied: "Could be worse. I'm not choking."
The pair then enjoyed a kiss under the covers, as George joked: "We're behind the bike sheds!"
After Dee asked them to keep quiet, George responded: "Your favourite son is about to lose his virginity, you keep quiet!"
George has already enjoyed a mini-romance with Made in Chelsea star Stephanie Pratt during his time in the house.
Celebrity Big Brother concludes this evening (September 12) at 9pm on Channel 5, as George, Edele, Gary Busey, White Dee, James Jordan and Audley Harrison battle it out.

The morning after the argument, there was still tension in the air as Edele Lynch suggested that the duo could "get to the point where they'll be civil".
Meanwhile, Audley Harrison spoke to Big Brother in the Diary Room and admitted that he was surprised there wasn't more empathy for Gary among the other housemates.
James Jordan, for instance, was still annoyed with Gary, telling Dee: "The Hollywood legend is a complete and utter arsehole."
Dee later went to the Diary Room to speak about Gary to Big Brother, complaining: "He has lied to me and called me a liar."
She added that she gave him the benefit of the doubt at first and her opinion has changed gradually, though she seemed to soften as she acknowledged: "He can be the nicest person ever.

The contestant was in the kitchen with Dee, James Jordan and George Gilbey when he was experiencing discomfort with his knee injury.
Attempting to rearrange his leg brace, Gary pulled down his trousers, revealing no underwear. He then sat down on a chair.
James reacted with shock, while Dee was particularly annoyed by what was happening and asked James to sort it out.
George remarked: "What can you do? I'm not a professional. I don't know how to deal with that situation."
Gary tried to explain that his knee had to be fixed, but James responded: "I wear underpants. I don't sit on chairs with my bare bottom.
"That's not right, Gary. And there's ladies in here who shouldn't see your c**k and balls."
Gary shot back: "You exaggerate so much that a therapist would have a ball with you.

We see the housemates get a little taste of the nine-to-five lifestyle in tonight's Celebrity Big Brother.
In yesterday's (September 6) task, the celebrities had to work for Big Brother's call centre and deal with personal complaints from real members of the public, and it's pretty safe to say that not all of the complaints were taken well.
White Dee has to take a call from Gerry, and is told that she needs to smarten up as she looks like a mess. The caller elaborates that Dee's clothes "look like they're out of the pound shop" and that she needs to invest in a good bra "because they're on the knees".
Edele Lynch then speaks to a fan called Helen who says that she is just "moping around the house". Edele promises that she will try to be happier and more entertaining to watch.

Lauren Goodger has come under fire in the Celebrity Big Brother house, after some housemates accused her of playing a game.
The murmurs in the house began during the call centre task, when the Towie star was accused of taking herself too seriously and having a "game plan", which Lauren denied.
After licking Ribena off Ricci Guarnaccio's arm later in the day, she tells her possible love interest that he's "got to man up" and stand up for himself, saying: "If I was married to you, I'd be the voice of the relationship. You've got to man up!"
James Jordan later advises Lauren to think about what she has been saying to people when she's been drinking, and tells her that she can do some "really s****y things".

The Celebrity Big Brother housemates must listen to criticism from viewers in today's task.
In groups of four, the housemates worked a shift in the Big Brother call centre, dealing with tough questions from callers.
White Dee was criticised for sitting "with no make-up on" and looking "like you're chewing a wasp", while her caller told her to smile more and stop following Ricci Guarnaccio around the house. The Benefits Street star accepted the complaint and promised to "certainly try" to deal with the issues.
A fan of Audley Harrison's asked the boxing champion to be more entertaining, explaining that he needed to show his "wonderful personality" more. Audley impressed his caller by seeking guidance on how he could be more entertaining for viewers.
Edele Lynch's caller identified themselves as a "huge, huge fan", but called for a return of the "strong woman" she called her "idol".

James Jordan was left unhappy when fellow Celebrity Big Brother housemate Gary Busey became the house guidance counsellor in a new task.
Gary held sessions with housemates in his "calming and spiritually balanced therapy room", where he helped different housemates deal with their issues.
Former Strictly Come Dancing professional James was joined by Kellie Maloney and Audley Harrison for a conflict-resolution session.
Kellie tells Gary that she sees "a bit of Frank in James... very arrogant, very aggressive." Audley adds that some things about the dancer "rub him up the wrong way", but adds that he is "bigger than that".
Gary asks the trio to let their issues go, adding that "conflicts are stupid and silly".
But James defends himself, adding that he can "justify" all his actions in the house, before going on to criticise Gary's own behaviour.

Kellie Maloney has become the fifth person to be evicted from the Celebrity Big Brother house.
Her exit came as part of a double eviction, which saw Stephanie Pratt also voted off the Channel 5 series earlier tonight (September 5).
James Jordan, Gary Busey, Edele Lynch and Audley Harrison had also been on the block, but James and Gary were saved by the public from eviction earlier in the night.
"Get Kellie out" chants from the live crowd preceded host Emma Willis's eviction announcement, with the boxing promoter subsequently leaving to loud jeers.
During her exit interview, Maloney acknowledged that she had been profoundly changed by her experience in the Celebrity Big Brother house.
"I don't even remember going into the house - I went into the house drunk," she said. "I've come out very strong - and I've come out sober. It was like rehab."

Celebrity Big Brother housemate Gary Busey was the centre of yet more arguments yesterday (September 3).
The actor began the day well, telling Big Brother in the Diary Room that he felt "exceptional, wonderful, together, balanced, even" and that it is "wonderful to be where I am now, within myself of truth".
Gary even revealed that he wasn't concerned about being evicted, saying: "If I'm not evicted, it will just go on. And if I'm evicted, I won't really be evicted because my heart and soul will be in the Big Brother house. Big Brother will be in my heart forever and I'm just the messenger of hope, truth and love."
However, some of the housemates were talking less positively about Gary, as Kellie Maloney suggested that he was "playing" all of the housemates and noted: "Days before the eviction and when the cameras are on, he comes to life... he's a born actor.

Audley Harrison, Kellie Maloney, Edele Lynch, Stephanie Pratt, Gary Busey and James Jordan have been nominated for eviction from Celebrity Big Brother on Friday (September 5).
The six housemates will face the public vote, after the group took part in face-to-face nominations following last night's eviction.
Gary received the most nominations, picking up six in total, while Kellie followed with five. Edele had four, James and Audley had two, and Stephanie had one.
Edele did not seem to take the news well, noting incorrectly that she received the same number of nominations as Gary and joking: "I'm not cleaning any of your toilets anymore - you can clean up your own s**t, people!"
White Dee, who nominated Edele because she "needs to be with her kids", later apologised for throwing a vote her way.
Giving her a hug, Dee said: "It just came out wrong, and as a mum, I know myself.

Celebrity Big Brother housemate Kellie Maloney has completely lost her patience with James Jordan.
Kellie appeared to spend much of yesterday complaining about the former Strictly pro, beginning at the start of the day when she told Audley Harrison that James has no personality.
She added that he is an "arrogant arsehole", and when Audley acknowledged he has a chip on his shoulder, Kellie joked that it was more like a sack of King Edward potatoes.
Later, Kellie told White Dee that she couldn't be in the same room as James, adding that she wants the public to vote her out and saying: "The more I'm around James, the more I want to knock his lights out."
She also told Lauren Goodger that she wants James to know she doesn't like him, and she clashed with the dancer during a conversation about Lauren's relationship with Ricci.

The latest Celebrity Big Brother task has concluded.
The house was split into two groups, with James Jordan and Audley Harrison made team captains.
James and Audley were then confined to a perspex dome where they had access to only water. The captains were told that the housemate who lasted longest in the dome would win luxury for their team and immunity from the next eviction.
Big Brother tried to tempt the pair out of the dome by offering them a phone call with their wives but both housemates resisted.
As James and Audley both displayed stoicism in not leaving the dome, they were both awarded immunity from eviction and both teams enjoyed a luxurious evening in which they were served their favourite meals.
However, George Gilbey and Stephanie Pratt were excluded from the evening of luxury for speaking about nominations and were both sent to the dome for the evening.

Big Brother sprang surprise face-to-face nominations on the housemates last night following David McIntosh's eviction.
The former boxing champion nominated Kellie, explaining that he thought she should be evicted as the world is not ready for her, and admitting that he sometimes feels uncomfortable around her due to having previously known her prior to her gender transition. Upset with his admission, Kellie refused to hear what Audley had to say.
Audley was later given a warning about his nomination reasons, prompting him to claim that he needed time to accept Kellie for who she is.
"I think anyone would be crazy to suggest that you just switch and make the adjustment, it's going to take time," he said.
This morning (August 28), Audley addressed the situation, apologising for upsetting Kellie with his nomination reasons.

There was bitter disappointment in the Celebrity Big Brother house yesterday (August 26) after its famous inhabitants failed their latest shopping task.
Gary Busey was unable to convince fellow housemates of his supposed phobia of balloons, which he was instructed to fake by Big Brother as part of an acting skill test.
The 70-year-old Point Break star entered the Phobia Test room to act out his fake fear of balloons - known as globophobia - and had to pretend to be so frightened that housemates would be compelled to press the panic button and save him.
While Stephanie Pratt showed concern for him, David McIntosh and White Dee suspected that he was acting. Audley Harrison suggested that they press the panic button, but Angelique 'Frenchy' Morgan and James Jordan seemed reluctant.
When Big Brother broke the news that they had failed, Audley began to irritate James by reminding housemates...
Gary Busey was unable to convince fellow housemates of his supposed phobia of balloons, which he was instructed to fake by Big Brother as part of an acting skill test.
The 70-year-old Point Break star entered the Phobia Test room to act out his fake fear of balloons - known as globophobia - and had to pretend to be so frightened that housemates would be compelled to press the panic button and save him.

Sometimes people argue that Celebrity Big Brother is dead. Then the show produces a clip that proves that it is alive and oh so very well. Over the weekend, one of those very moments arose, thanks to a certain Gary Busey.
Gary's been a fascinating watch so far, but if you didn't catch Celebrity Big Brother's Bit On The Side on Saturday night - and hey, you're busy, we get it - then you probably haven't seen this fantastic clip that had us giggling our heads off.
James Jordan and Audley Harrison were trying to have a serious conversation in the bathroom to resolve their differences, when Gary came swinging out of the shower, grinning and with only a strategically-placed Big Brother eye to save our eyes.
It's utterly bizarre and one of those moments that could only have been on Celebrity Big Brother, so even though it's a couple of days old,...

The Celebrity Big Brother housemates were feeling nauseous as Gary Busey and Stephanie Pratt took part in their disgusting toothpaste shopping task yesterday.
Gary and Stephanie competed to be cast in CBB's 'Taste Away Toothpaste' advert, with the best audition to be selected by Celebrity Agents Leslie Jordan and Kellie Maloney.
The toothpaste promised to not only keep your teeth clean, but to make unpleasant foods taste pleasant.
Sadly for Gary and Stephanie, the toothpaste was actually wasabi paste, and the pair were then subjected to eating jellied eels and extra hot curry washed down with a white wine vinegar and fishy milkshake (Stephanie almost got her donkey balls).
Despite the fact that Stephanie was sick during the task, her audition was picked by Leslie and Kellie and will be made available to view on social media sites. If they accrue enough hits collectively, the housemates will pass their task and secure their shopping list.

Celebrity Big Brother housemate Gary Busey got on the wrong side of James Jordan yesterday after suggesting he is gay.
Gary started off the day well, telling Big Brother in the Diary Room that he is having the best time he's had in all his life.
"It's a unique and special place to be with 13 wonderful people with solid identities and big hearts," he said, explaining he wanted to give people a good feeling about themselves.
Gary also learned about black pudding - and asked what it would do to his genitalia - and amused himself by wearing a wig and asking if anyone had seen Gary.
However, signs of tension were visible as James told Big Brother that he believed people would get offended by Gary, even though he found him funny himself.
Later in the day, when Leslie Jordan put on some white surgical gloves to go through the 'Duchess's' suitcase,...

Is Lauren Goodger on her way to becoming the most image-conscious Celebrity Big Brother housemate of all time?
Because, while taking a short break from catching her reflection in the mirrors adorning the walls of the house on the show's launch night, she was even caught checking herself out... in the reflection of her knife. Courtney Stodden, eat your heart out.
Even self-proclaimed piece of "eye-candy" and short shorts enthusiast David McIntosh seemed taken aback by her apparent display of vanity.
So, here we reflect (ahem) on the surface-conscious star's entrance and early impact in the house:
Although CBB host Emma Willis did ask Lauren for a selfie - due to her prolific postings on Twitter - she still used the opportunity to pout towards high heaven, as the pair brandished a mirror on the steps of the CBB compound...

Celebrity Big Brother housemate Lauren Goodger was spotted engaging in some first night flirting yesterday.
The former Towie star began by getting to know Ricci Guarnaccio - and asked him to "feel" her bottom to see if it was wet.
The exchange caught the eye of the housemates, as Audley Harrison called across the room: "Find the bedroom!"
Meanwhile, Stephanie Pratt suggested that the group should put bets on how long it would be before Lauren and Ricci got together, while Edele Lynch said: "Lauren is quite flirtatious when she's drunk."
Lauren described David McIntosh as "hot", and also spent some time flirting with George Gilbey, asking him if she looked ugly.
After he told her that she never looks ugly, she sighed: "I want to be sober now".
"I want to be as drunk as you," George joked, prompting Lauren to laugh and give him a hug, adding: "I'm so glad you're here.
