Celebrity Big Brother air date confirmed
The new series will return on Thursday January 5, 2012, moving back to its traditional winter slot following a summer run for its Channel 5 debut earlier this year.
Axed X Factor star Frankie Cocozza and actress Lindsay Lohan have reportedly been offered deals for the new series.
Host Brian Dowling has admitted that he would like to see Katie Price in the Celebrity Big Brother House, while Boy George is said to have demanded £1m to appear.
Big Fat Gypsy Weddings star Paddy Doherty won the last series, which also featured Amy Childs, Kerry Katona, Tara Reid and Jedward.
Doherty is currently facing three years in jail for fighting.
