The ‘All Stars’ edition will feature carefully selected housemates and fan favourites from previous editions of the show. Fans can expect a line-up of exciting and engaging tasks, unpredictable twists and turns, as well as fan-favourite ‘Ninjas’. The season will also include the famous pool and grill party, and Saturday Night Raves.
