Pre-series
Logo
The official new eye logo for the series was released on 1 August 2013. The new logo design followed the same pattern as for Big Brother 14, but with a new golden theme.[5] The new icon featured the doors, drawers and wooden frame of the fourteenth civilian series' eye – but it was recoloured in gold and navy blue to give it a VIP feel to tie in with the 'posh' theme of the series. Unlike most Celebrity Big Brother eyes, this logo did not feature the "star" in the centre.
Presenters
On 2 April 2013, Emma Willis was officially announced as the host of Celebrity Big Brother, after previous host Brian Dowling was removed.[4] Willis also presented Celebrity Big Brother's Bit on the Side alongside Rylan Clark and AJ Odudu, who replaced Alice Levine and Jamie East from the fourteenth regular series.[6][7][8]
Sponsorship
The series sponsor was casino website and television programme (that airs nightly on Channel 5) SuperCasino.[9]
Teasers
From 16 August 2013, Channel 5 began screening a ten-second trailer celebrating the return of the series. The trailer featured the obligatory voiceover of Marcus Bentley, and showcased the newest Celebrity Big Brother logo.[10]
House
Pictures of the house were released on 22 August 2013. The house contained a 'posh' theme, with luxurious fittings in and outside of the Celebrity Big Brother compound. This was in stark contrast to the eco-style house that was in use just three days before in the fourteenth regular series.[11]

Controversy
On Day 2, Carol McGiffin received a formal warning from Big Brother after using the word "nigger" in a conversation with Louie Spence. The warning attracted some criticism from viewers as Carol was quoting what Ron Atkinson had said during his time as a football pundit. Viewers were also critical of the fact that "nigger" was censored when Carol used it in said conversation with Louie, but when Big Brother referenced it when speaking to her, it was left uncensored.[17]
On Day 3, Ron was given a formal warning by Big Brother after he commented to Danielle Marr, "You're not carrying a bomb with you, are you?" while she had her jumper over her head in similar fashion to a headscarf, which is commonly worn by Muslim women. Ron was then called to the Diary Room where Big Brother told him that his comments could be deemed "potentially offensive".[20]
On Day 5, Mario Falcone was called to the Diary Room and given an official warning by Big Brother after "slapping" Sophie Anderton while playfighting in the garden.
On Day 8, Lauren Harries was given a formal warning by Big Brother after she attempted to share some of her medication with Courtney Stodden. Lauren put some of her tablets in Courtney's mouth and told her to have a drink after Courtney complained about feeling unwell.[62]
