So stars from Big Brother, Pop Idol, Survivor and I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! will live together under the watchful eye of TV cameras, with one of them being crowned winner.
Waste time
"All the people in the house will be famous and familiar to viewers so they won't have to waste time getting to know them," a spokesman for the show told Broadcast magazine.
Channel Five said the show will go out later this year. It's being billed as "the last word in reality TV".
