Celebrity Big Brother house goes into lockdown following 'major security breach'

Security is ‘now being reviewed’ on the ITV show following the ‘terrifying’ incident

The Celebrity Big Brother house was reportedly thrown into chaos after a drone landed in the garden in what has been called a “major security breach”.

Two of the housemates were said to be outside at the time and actually witnessed the drone appearing.

They were soon ordered inside the house along with the other housemates, with big metal shutters going down to protect them while TV bosses on the ITV show investigated further.

A source claimed: "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.”

They added to The Sun: "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."

The Standard contacted a representative for CBB for comment, who said they had “nothing to add”.

Meanwhile, a video has since appeared on TikTok under the account @thedronemenace, which appears to show footage from the drone responsible.

The clip begins outside studios affiliated with ITV in London, with someone pointing out the security in the area before saying: "Alright, let's get to it, see what we can see."

The footage then cuts to the CBB garden, with Mickey using an exercise bike while Michael stands next to him. The former Tory MP pretends to shoot at the drone, while the Hollywood star continues cycling and looks up at the device with crossed arms. In the final clip, huge metal shutters are shown rolling over the windows leading into the house.

The accompanying caption of the video read: "Step inside the Big Brother house with me as I mingle with the stars! But just as the fun begins, the unexpected happens—lockdown activated due to the Drone Menace!
