Celebrity Big Brother 2024 might have only started airing a few weeks ago, but it's already set to wrap with the final tonight.
The CBB reboot launched on ITV with a line-up of 15 stars including ‘lodger’ Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh, with the pair having provided several very revealing opinions during their time in the house of their fellow housemates, as well as everyone from Simon Cowell to Jedward.
Ah, quality telly.
The housemates have been in the Big Brother house for just three weeks, with them being set tasks each day for the opportunity to win a luxury or normal shopping budget. And with celebrities asked to nominate two housemates every few days, it's been a busy series!
We've already had two evictions this week – one double eviction and one ‘backdoor eviction’.
So who is left in Big Brother? Here, we reveal the Big Brother finalists and all the evicted housemates from this year's series.
A rundown of every celeb you'll see in the house, including a Love Islander, Strictly Pro & TWO X-Factor judges.

With Bradley Riches being voted out of the Big Brother house in the backdoor eviction in the penultimate episode, that means the following housemates are this year's Celebrity Big Brother finalists:
- Louis Walsh
- Fern Britton
- David Potts
- Colson Smith
- Nikita Kuzmin
Celebrity Big Brother evicted housemates
Eviction 1: Gary Goldsmith
This week, Gary Goldsmith and Lauren Simon faced the first public vote of the series, with Gary Goldsmith ultimately being the first housemate to be evicted in episode 5 of the show.
Gary Goldsmith, uncle to Kate Middleton, was up for eviction following Sharon nominating him as part of her secret task. On her decision to choose Gary, Sharon told Big Brother (and unknowingly, the rest of the house who it was broadcast to): “The housemate that I nominate is Gary. I don't think he's that comfortable here, I think he's awkward with himself being here too.”
She added: "He's brave to have come in here. I somehow don't think this is the place for him. He's the oddball. If I went into his world, and suddenly plonked myself in the middle of his boardrooms, I'd feel the same. I think he's insecure too."
Responding, Gary admitted: "To be fair, this isn't my world. I'd go back to normal life."
Eviction 2: Lauren Simon
Reality TV star Lauren Simon was the second Big Brother housemate along with Gary Goldsmith up for eviction after receiving the most nominations from her fellow housemates, with six votes from Bradley, Colson, Gary, Marisha, Nikita and Zeze.
Understandably, Lauren wasn't thrilled with the nominations and went to have a moment away to compose herself in the bathroom, seeking comfort from Ekin-Su, Sharon and Louis.
Lauren was saved from the first eviction by the public who voted Gary Goldsmith out instead, with her then going up for eviction in the second of the series after receiving four nominations and ultimately being evicted.
Left: Sharon Osbourne
Though she wasn't evicted and was only ever set to be in the Celebrity Big Brother house for a week or so, Sharon Osbourne left along with Lauren Simon in the second eviction, with the celebrity ‘lodger’ explaining that she wanted to get home to husband Ozzy.
Eviction 3: Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Levi Roots
In the first double eviction of Celebrity Big Brother 2024, Love Island winner Ekin-Su and celebrity chef Levi Roots left the house. Fern Britton, David Potts and Louis Walsh were also put up for eviction alongside the pair, with the housemates all being made to do their nominations in front of one another which made for some spicy moments to say the least.
Speaking on her eviction on Celebrity Big Brother Late & Live, Ekin-Su said: “I don’t think people knew that I was being myself, and I don’t think people connected with me as if I was being myself.”
On his eviction, Levi said “I personally think that there was some that knew how to play the game and others that had no clue, including myself. I don’t think it's a place to be honest, I think if you’re honest there then you don’t have a chance."
He added “I tried to be honest, I can’t do anything else apart from be Levi Roots.”
Eviction 3: Zeze Millz and Marisha Wallace
American theatre actor Marisha Wallace and YouTuber Zeze Millz were the next to go in the third double eviction of the series on Tuesday.
During her exit interview, Marisha said “I’m just happy I wasn’t booed”, after the live audience were heard chanting “get Fern out”. Eek. Marisha also found out that she had been nominated for an Olivier Award while in the house, so she could be doing a lot worse!
Backdoor eviction 4: Bradley Riches
The penultimate episode revealed Bradley Riches as the last housemate to be evicted before the final, as voted for by the public. Speaking to host AJ Odudu, Bradley said “I'm very thankful, very happy, very grateful” before saying his goodbyes to his fellow housemates.
"I love you all so much. I've had the best time. I really have.” he said.
