BIG BROTHER TONIGHT: FULL RUNDOWN, MONDAY 19th OCTOBER 2026

Here's a full rundown of what to expect in tonight's episode of Big Brother, which continues on ITV2 and ITVX.

HOUSEMATES BECOME THE SPEAKING CLOCK IN TODAY’S TIME TASK

The Housemates are gathered at the sofa for today’s time task.

Big Brother says, “Housemates, on the screen is your current time bank. To increase your time banks, today you will become the speaking clock, tasked with keeping the correct time. There are three telephones placed throughout the house for you to find.”

“Shortly, one of these three phones will ring. You must find the ringing phone immediately and answer it. Whichever Housemate answers the phone will be told what the exact time is at that moment. Housemates must then keep counting the seconds and minutes until one of the three phones rings for a second time.”

Harry says, “Lynx, lock in.”

Rochelle says, “Oh this is setting us up to fail.”

Omar says, “It’s not, it’s not. Guys, stop complaining ‘cause then we’re not even gonna get to it, bruv. Like we’re just gonna fail already then.”

Big Brother continues, “Upon answering the phone, Housemates will then be asked to give the correct time. Big Brother will allow you to be out by 10 seconds either way. For every correct answer given, 10 seconds will be added to all Housemates individual time banks. For every incorrect answer, five seconds will be deducted from all Housemates' individual time banks.”

Sam answers the phone the second time it rings from the bathroom. He then answers again to give the time back to Big Brother.

Sam says, “I think I got it, I hope that’s it.”

Rochelle answers the phone the third time from The Snug. She then answers again to give the time back to Big Brother.

Rochelle says, “I don’t know, because they literally… I counted, it’s impossible.”

Will the Housemates successfully count the time to pass the task in order to gain time in the Time Bank?

TWINKS IS GIVEN AN OFFER THAT MAY LEAVE HER IN HOT WATER

Big Brother calls one Housemate to the Diary Room. 

Big Brother says, “Twinks, how would you like to add a huge 30 seconds to your individual time bank?”

Twinks says, “What’s the catch?”

Big Brother says, “You must sacrifice the hot water in the house for all Housemates for the next 24 hours… Twinks, the choice is yours.”

Twinks says, “I don’t know if you’ve noticed Big Brother, I’m not exactly the most popular Housemate in this house right now am I?”

Will Twinks accept Big Brother’s offer or will she leave the 30 seconds behind for the sake of her standing in the house?

IS IT THE END FOR OMAR AND RHIANNA?

Omar and Rhianna are in The Garden.

Rhianna says, “Omar, you think I’m acting weird. I think you’re acting weird. We’re not acting weird, I’ve just been out of it. I’m not acting weird…”

Omar says, “It’s fine, I don’t care. I didn’t say anything to you about it.”

Rhianna says, “Okay. I’m not acting weird.”

Omar says, “You are.”

Rhianna says, “I’ve just been going through it in my head, not about you.”

Omar says, “I know, which has made you act weird and then you’re blaming it on me.”

Rhianna says, “I’m sorry… cause I feel like you’ve been acting weird.”

Omar says, “No, I’ve just been leaving you alone cause I can’t be bothered, honestly.”Rhianna says, “Okay. I don’t want you to think that…”

Their conversation continues, Rhianna says, “I wanna be okay with you, but this is not going anywhere.”

Big Brother continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
