Jockey Frankie Dettori and former Liverpool defender Neil Ruddock have been named as contestants in this year's Celebrity Big Brother.
The duo entered the house this evening, joining a cast comprised of soap actors, American TV stars, a Page 3 model and a '90s pop singer.
Dettori was able to take part in the show as he is serving a drugs ban imposed by horse racing's governing body in France, while Ruddock was a late addition to replace Jim Davidson.
This season's other housemates are Rylan Clark, Claire Richards, Gillian Taylforth, Ryan Maloney, Sam Robertson, Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, Tricia Penrose and Lacey Banghard.
Rumours of the inclusion of heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury, started by his uncle and trainer Peter Fury over Twitter, proved unfounded.
Celebrity Big Brother will air on Channel 5 for the next two weeks.
