Celebrity Big Brother: All Stars (UK Season 1)

Celebrity Big Brother: All Stars (sometimes abbreviated to CBB: All Stars or CBBAS) is a British television reality game show. The show follows a number of celebrity contestants from previous seasons, known as housemates, who are isolated from the outside world for an extended period of time in a custom built House. Each week, one of the housemates is evicted by a public vote, with the last housemate named the winner. The series takes its name from the character in George Orwell's 1949 novel Nineteen Eighty-Four.

CBBAS is the first edition of the show to air on ITV2, the show moved to the channel in early 2018 after Channel 5 cancelled the series in September 2017. It was the first series to be presented by Davina McCall since 2010's Ultimate Big Brother. The main series is accompanied by the panel show Celebrity Big Brother's All Star Natter (CBBASN), which is hosted by Laura Whitmore and Matt Edmondson. CBBAS premiered on ITV2 on July 20th 2018, with CBBASN premiering straight after. The series ran for 28 days and had 18 housemates in total, with 14 entering on launch night, three entering in week 2 and one entering in week 3. The finale aired on August 17th 2018.
