The series launched on 18 August 2014 on Channel 5[1] and ended after 26 days on 12 September. It was the seventh celebrity series and the eleventh series of Big Brother overall to air on the channel. Emma Willis hosted the series, whilst Rylan Clark presented the spin-off show Celebrity Big Brother's Bit on the Side along with Iain Lee, Willis and regular panelist Luisa Zissman.
The series was won by actor Gary Busey. With an average of 2.1 million, this series was the lowest watched series on Channel 4 or Channel 5 until Celebrity Big Brother 16 the following year. It was down 1 million on the previous January series. On finale night, it was revealed that the series would return in January 2015.

The official eye logo was released on 6 August 2014 and features a similar design to Big Brother 15 but with the iconic star in the centre of the eye.[1]
Despite fifteenth series of Big Brother having only an hour and a half live feed for the entire series run, it was officially announced on 6 August 2014 that there would be an hour of live feed available almost nightly on Channel 5 due to the ratings success of the previous editions of the show and mass viewer request.
On 11 August 2014, the first 30-second teaser was released which features footage from past series of Celebrity Big Brother on Channel 5. However, the tenth series or eleventh series are not included.[2]
SuperCasino continued its sponsorship for this series, after previously sponsoring the fourteenth and fifteenth series of the civilian series, and the twelfth and thirteenth series of the celebrity series.
The house was completely revamped ahead of the series and was given a "glamorous VIP makeover".[3] Official house pictures were released on 18 August 2014, the same day as launch day.[4] The diary room was coated in a gold sparkle style with gold screens either side of the chair. The control room below the diary room was removed as the 'Power Trip' theme from Big Brother 15 was dis-continued. Detailed parts of the Celebrity Big Brother eye were placed all around the main parts of the house including the kitchen, living area, dining area and bathroom. the living area now had more comfortable seating unlike the black and green sofas for the civilians. In the bathroom the colour scheme had been changed to gold with the shower surrounded by a golden cover for the celebrities. In the garden the previous sunbed area had been moved over and was replaced by a seating area next to the pool. Coloured lines were also spaced throughout the garden making it look less bland than what it did look like in the last series. The bedroom wallpaper was changed to an orange city skyline with a new fluffy carpet and one extra bed for Gary Busey.
