On Celebrity Big Brother Breakdown with The Sun, which will expose all the hottest gossip from the house every weekday at 5pm, we give an exclusive update from a tour of the set. 

And we tell how an unseen corner of the store room suggests more housemates could be incoming. 

The storeroom has a section of medical lockers, marked with a white cross on a green background, where the celebrities will have access to their own essential supplies like medication and supplements.

And there are sixteen of them.

A source said: “Bosses are remaining tight-lipped about just how many stars will be checking into the Celebrity Big Brother house this series but fans will be quick to speculate the sixteen lockers are a sign that surprise arrivals will be part of the game plan. 

“We already know that Sharon Osbourne will arrive as a temporary guest but the lockers suggest there could be more.” 

It comes after The Sun last week revealed the full line-up for this comeback series of the star-spangled show. 

As well as Sharon, big names include Louis Walsh, Fern Britton and celebrity chef Levi Roots

The new Celebrity Big Brother Breakdown with The Sun podcast will air every weekday at 5pm with all the gossip, news and exclusive interviews with ex-housemates plus current names’ family and friends.
