Experts and correspondents

''Live from the House''

''Celebrity Big Brother: Live from the House'' was a one-hour show airing straight after the Live Eviction show on Channel 5, at 10pm on 5*. The show focuses on the aftermath of the eviction. The show airs before spin-off show ''Big Brother's Bit on the Side'', which airs at 11pm. It first aired as part of ''

''s schedule. The programme featured one hour of "live" streaming, which was absent from both ''

'' and '' Big Brother 12''.

2012

It returned for '' Big Brother 13'', renamed ''Big Brother: Live from the House'', as a 30-minute show on 6 July 2012 (four weeks into the series). For ''

'', the show moved to Channel 5 and now broadcasts twice-weekly for 30 minutes (or 60 minutes depending on schedule). An episode, featuring live nominations, on 17 August 2012 pulled in 2.22m viewers at 10pm on Channel 5. This slightly outrated the night's highlights show which took 2.18m viewers. These two episodes were broadcast during the ''Celebrity Big Brother 10'' series.

2013

Channel 5 announced on 14 May 2013 that the live feed will be partly reinstated, for two hours per day. ''Big Brother: Live from the House'' aired each night from 19:00 on 5* during '' Big Brother 14'', except for Sundays which only featured one hour from 20:00. Both launch nights featured 30 minutes of live feed after ''Bit on the Side'' from 23:30 on Channel 5 and this will continue after every eviction during the series. On 26 June, it was announced that the daily live feed on 5* would be axed and replaced with other programming, starting 6 July 2013. However, two days later, it emerged that the final daily instalemnt of ''Live from the House'' would now air on 30 June at 8pm (a week earlier than originally planned).

2014

For ''Celebrity Big Brother 2014'', Live from the House was axed online from midnight to 2am and replaced with a 30-minute edition of live streaming every Friday night from 11:30pm on Channel 5. Channel 5 again axed Big Brother: Live from the House during the fifteenth edition of ''Big Brother''. This was to make way for order for Channel 5's new dating show ''Stand By Your Man'' meaning as with ''Celebrity Big Brother 8'' and ''Big Brother 12'', live streaming was completely unavailable to viewers. Prior to the launch of the fourteenth series of ''Celebrity Big Brother'', Channel 5 announced that Big Brother: Live from the House would make a return to Channel 5 airing most nights from 12 midnight after Big Brothers Bit on the Side for the first week of the series.

2015

For the fifteenth series of ''Celebrity Big Brother'' in January 2015, Live from the House will again air after evictions on Channel 5. This then continued on for ''Big Brother 16''. Prior to launch of the sixteenth series of ''Celebrity Big Brother'', Channel 5 announced that Live Feed would be reinstated on sister Channel 5* every week night for 1 hour at midnight until 1am. This will also be joined by the 30 minutes of live feed on Channel 5 after each eviction night, meaning there will be 90 minutes of live feed every eviction night and 1 hour every other week night.
