ITV wanted to make sure the comeback landed with a bang so they will kick things off by giving it the most high-profile spot possible.

Emphasising how the show bosses are trying hard to create the hype for Big Brother again, the source added:

This is something which has never been done before. Even when Love Island was at the height of its pulling power, it never had a launch show on ITV1.
Bosses really want the BB reboot to work and are hoping it will prove just as sensational as when it first launched 23 years ago.
