Celebrity Big Brother is back for its 24th season. Before you roll your eyes, remember that it's delivered some of the most iconic moments in reality TV history. And with CBB legend Tiffany Pollard returning as a 'house guest' (a la Sharon Osbourne last year), it's bound to be another memorable series.

Entering the house this year is former children's presenter, Angellica Bell. Here's everything you need to know about her ahead of the new series. Given that she's spent a large part of her career surrounded by children, hopefully she'll be prepared for some of the nonsense the show has in store.

She started her career as a roving reporter on Channel 4's The Big Breakfast in the late 1990s. She has also presented programmes like The Saturday Show, Holiday Hitsquad, and Comic Relief Does Fame Academy.
