In 2004, he hosted "Big Brother's Eforum" on E4, a sister show to "Big Brother 5". The show gave celebrity guests and the public the chance to have their say on the goings-on inside the "Big Brother" house. For "Big Brother 6", the show's name changed to "Big Brother's Big Mouth". Following "Celebrity Big Brother 5", Brand said he would not return to host the "Big Brother 8" series of "Big Brother's Big Mouth". In a statement, Brand thanked all the producers for "taking the risk of employing an ex-junkie twerp" to front the show. Of his time presenting the show, he said, "The three years I've spent on "Big Brother's Big Mouth" have been an unprecedented joy". Brand hosted a one-off special called "Big Brother According to Russell Brand", in which Brand took a surreal, sideways look at "Big Brother" through the ages. On 8 January 2008, Brand was the fifth celebrity to "hijack" the Big Brother house, in the E4 show "".
