Big Brother fans are convinced the reality series will return for good after its Twitter account was reactivated ahead of yesterday’s anniversary special.
The original Big Brother UK Twitter came back to life just days before the highly anticipated Best Shows Ever series kicked off with Davina McCall and Rylan Clark-Neal.

What have Davina and Rylan said?
“I lived and breathed Big Brother for 11 years,” said Davina, talking to The Sun.
“Not one week goes by when I don’t quote Big Brother in some form. It made me laugh, it made me cry and it taught me to never judge a book by its cover.”
