Celebrity Big Brother house on lockdown after 'terrifying' security breach (2025)

The Celebrity Big Brother house was put on lockdown after a drone was flown into the garden with a source calling the incident a 'major security breach'

The Celebrity Big Brother house was thrown into lockdown after a TikToker managed to infiltrate the TV compound. ITV bosses were forced to order emergency procedures at the West London studio, as the drone flew into the garden of the property.

Housemates Mickey Rourke and former MP Michael Fabricant were outside exercising in the garden when the incident took place.

According to reports, the producers immediately ordered all celebrities inside as the drone attempted to land on the grass.

The doors at the compound were then locked and the shutters lowered, leaving the housemates confined inside the property for several hours.

An insider commented on the situation, stating: "It was a major security breach. Flying a drone over the house is one thing but to be able to as good as land it in the garden meters away from the stars is terrifying.

"Michael was the first to spot the drone and pretended to shoot it down while Mickey was baffled. All the housemates ran to the doors to see what was happening but Big Brother quickly pulled down the shutters.

"Security is now being reviewed."

A video has now gone viral online of the housemates looking confused after footage was posted of the drone on TikTok by user @thedronemenace.

Those running the page previously targeted the house, on the launch night of the show, and have thrown drones over other TV sets including EastEnders and Coronation Street.

During last night's episode, a heated exchange between Olympic athlete Daley Thompson and Drag Race star Danny Beard marked the first argument of the series.

The clash started when Danny misinterpreted Mickey's gesture as a sign they were being chosen for something, only for Daley to sharply remark: "Not everything is about you."

Later, while looking through snacks with fellow housemate Donna Preston, Danny disclosed how the incident still bothered them.

"I'm overthinking it. I'm gonna totally make an effort with him tomorrow, that's it," they said, reflecting on the tense moment.

However, during a private conversation in the diary room with Big Brother, Danny confessed the offhand comment hurt their feelings. "I think I've tried to make an effort with everybody. But I heard Daley make a comment like, 'Well not everything revolves around you,' and, I don't know if I'm overthinking it..

"I can sense or I feel like he's a bit wary of me and that's fine cause maybe I'm also a little bit wary of him."

The exchange made Danny question where they stand with fellow house mate, Daley.
