Rylan Clark joins Bit On The Side

The winner of Celebrity Big Brother 2013 has been named as one of the co-presenters for Big Brother spin-off show, Bit On The Side.

The former X Factor star will join newcomer AJ Odudu and Emma Willis for Bit On The Side, the nightly Big Brother discussion show. Emma Willis will continue to contribute to the programme despite being named as the main presenter, replacing Brian Dowling (pictured below with Emma).

Rylan, who has appeared on ITV’s breakfast show Daybreak and daytime magazine programme This Morning to report on television news, will also present a new Sunday lunchtime version of Bit On The Side.

A new psych show will air on Saturday Nights, Big Brother’s Bit On The Psych.  The Bit On The Psych team will be joined by a panel of experts and psychologists to analyse the behaviour of the housemates over the past seven days.

“Big Brother’s spin off shows have a history of bringing on new talent and with Rylan and AJ I think we have two future stars.” – Ben Frow, Channel 5 Director of Programmes

The long campaign for live feed returns in some form this year. Between 7pm and 9pm on Channel 5’s digital channel 5*, there will be live feed direct from the house.

Big Brother returns in June on Channel 5.
